Michigan Green Jobs
Executive Summary
The new green economy provides Michigan a dynamic opportunity to rebuild
the state’s job base, attract new investment, and diversify the state’s economy.
We may be at a tipping point of awareness, understanding, and opportunities
that a green economy can provide for Michigan’s workforce, businesses, and
communities.
Michigan Green Jobs Report
2009 Full Report | Highlights Only
The May 2009 Michigan Green Jobs Report is the first effort of its kind for Michigan and makes us the second state (after Washington) to release a scientific survey of green jobs. This report covers private sector jobs in Michigan’s green economy, which we define as being comprised of five areas:
- agriculture and natural resource conservation;
- clean transportation and fuels
- increased energy efficiency
- pollution prevention or environmental cleanup; and
- renewable energy production.
