How can I earn a living while integrating ecology with economics?
The number of people who are succeeding in doing this is growing all the time. New organisations are creating job opportunities in both the public and private sector. As more businesses adopt environmental policies and move towards sustainable development they are seeking people with new skills and are also widening the responsibility of managers to include social and environmental responsibilities. Several independent consultants and trainers have a wide range of fees depending on the type of client they work for. This enables them to do interesting and challenging work on sustainable development, some of the time. Later they can adjust the balance as the opportunities increase and their confidence and experience grows.
