Green Jobs is a term we hear a lot.  Reporters use it, we see it used to advertise materials, politicians talk about the need to create green jobs, and colleges and universities even refer to majors of study as leading to green careers.  So what are green jobs?  According to the White House Task Force on the Middle Class, "green jobs provide products and services which use renewable energy resources, reduce pollution, convserve energy and natural resources, and reconstitute water."  In short, green jobs are good for the environment.
