摘要

2014 AUG 29 (VerticalNews) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Energy Business Journal -- Ecotech Institute's Clean Jobs Index, a tool to compare states' use and development of clean and sustainable energy, found more than two million job postings in the green energy sector in quarters one and two of 2014 alone. This is almost an 88 percent increase from the first and second quarters in 2013. The Clean Jobs Index classifies clean energy jobs based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics description, which says that a clean job is part of a business that benefits the environment or conserves natural resources.
