Gen Z, we need to talk about your green skills gap 🌿💼 Recent research from LinkedIn has uncovered a concerning disparity between your environmental consciousness and your preparedness for green jobs. Let's break it down: • Today, only 1 in 20 Gen Zers have the green skills for climate challenges • By 2030, you'll be a third of the workforce as companies race to meet emissions targets • This isn't just about filling jobs—it's about reshaping entire industries But the green skills gap isn't a roadblock; it's a launchpad. Here's what I predict: 1. A surge in green upskilling programs, both in-house and through #edtech 2. The rise of "green translators"—professionals who bridge traditional roles with sustainability 3. A boom in green entrepreneurship and #INTRApreneurship as Gen Z creates the jobs they want to see The future of work isn't just green—it's regenerative. You won't just reduce harm; you'll actively heal our planet through your careers. So, let's think big: ❓What extinct jobs might come back in a green economy? (Blacksmiths for wind turbines, anyone?) ❓How might AI and green skills intersect to create entirely new career paths? ❓What wild ideas do you have for solving climate issues through your future work? Let's brainstorm the careers of 2030 and beyond! 🌍💡 #greenjobs #genZ #sustainability #careerdevelopment #climateaction #greenskills https://lnkd.in/gsHmJpx8.
