520 _aThis book argues that employment that contributes to protecting the environment and reducing humanity's carbon footprint − green jobs − can be a key economic driver as the world steps into the still largely uncharted territory of building a sustainable and low-carbon global economy. With specific experiences and macroeconomic studies, this book documents that positive outcomes are eminently possible.
