National Public Radio Reports on "New Jobs for a New Decade:" Green Jobs

National Public Radio's Morning Edition recently broadcast a story ("A Once Dark Polaroid Factory Goes Green," Jan. 5, 2010) that puts the concept of "green jobs" in a broader perspective. You should definitely read the transcript (see link above) if your interest lies in the area of green jobs.

As the story reported, "President Obama [has] said that he wants to create five million new green jobs over 10 years." Of course, we are at the very beginning of that effort. Consequently, there is no better time to be familiar with the policy discussions going on as well as equipping yourself with the best educational experiences available, many of which you can find at the DU College of Law where you will find courses on renewable energy, sustainability, climate change, and other cutting-edge topics.
