The Value of a Green MBA

1 comments

Perhaps the question we get asked most at Bright Green Talent is: “What do I need to do to get a green job?”

Despite the economic crisis, the environmental movement is gaining
traction by the day, and the trickle of green jobseekers has turned to
a flood. It seems that the meltdown in traditional careers, coupled
with an increased desire for meaning in the workplace, has prompted
this awakening and the resulting exodus toward meaning and greening.

The Need for Holistic Economics

There's a deeper, darker recession that has been stealthily growing
since long before the Lehmans and Madoffs of this world were consumed
by their own greed. No doubt the financial crisis will affect many of
us over the coming years. Its speed, coupled with the related financial
tendrils that creep into many of our lives are surely cause for
concern. Yet there is another financial disaster occurring that we've
largely ignored as we've gorged on cheap money. One that's less easily
solved, taking place far from the trading desks and skyscrapers - the
environmental crisis.

    body of an email rather than having it as a separate document.

The Power of Simplicity

If we want a billion people to act, we have to make a billion people
want to act. The inconvenient truths are increasingly recognized, now
we need convenient actions.

We're constantly reminded that many of our planet's environmental
problems stem from our relentless desire for growth. The newer,
gargantuan developing economies of China and India combine to increase
this pressure. We're told we have to stop consuming "for the sake of
the planet." It's a tired message, which often falls on deaf ears in
the absence of a personal incentive.
