Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is looking to provide green jobs by training and employing young adults between the ages of 16-24 years old in the state of California. This is part of the new California Green Corps, a statewide effort to train young adults to work in the state's fledgling green-tech industry.
The idea is to create a 20-month pilot program in at least 10 locations to train at least 1,000 people for jobs such as solar-panel installation and sheet-metal manufacturing for wind turbines, Schwarzenegger said.
I think more programs like this will start launching throughout the country, especially since the US currently leads the world in Wind Power and is looking to also lead in Solar Power as well. The current tax credits and incentives for Solar and Wind Energy will help create more installations for home owners, businesses and require a skilled work force to handle these green jobs. We will follow this story and keep you up to date on their progress.
We will also continue to cover stories on green jobs, ways to define solar energy, wind energy, Obama alternative energy and more.
