Eco job

What is it?
If you want to change the world to be more environmentally friendly and socially just, you could work on that full time. It is possible to make your calling a profession!

How does it relate to ecology/sustainability?
We need to get a dynamic going in many, many fields. The more people do this professionally, the faster and easier it can work out. If you dream of clean air and water for everyone, fair trade worldwide, biodiversity that is protected for our children or a 100% renewable energy future, why not find a way to work towards these goals and make a living at the same time? There are many NGOs, government programmes and even businesses out there that make good contributions towards those goals. And many have been started by courageous individuals who decided one day to take things into their own hands.

Where can I get more information?/Where can I get it?
Grégoire (HC:gregoire) has started his own small business, selling organic vegetable oils. Kjell is planning to work on indigenous people and intercultural understanding full-time even though there is no such project or workplace yet. If you have an idea and could use some advice to get started, don’t hesitate to ask us.
