Obama promised to create new jobs by supporting clean technologies and renewable energies, and he’s been pushing hard. Last week, he appointed activist and author Van Jones as special adviser for green jobs, enterprise and innovation – a smart move given his popularity by the public, his visibility in the media and his ability to “bring people together like no other,” according to Ian who spoke to him at Berkeley last month. The new administration also just announced plans to channel $8 billion in weatherization and energy efficiency efforts promising to create 87,000 new jobs this way. Time will tell how effective these decisions are.

I would like to be able to see more green tech jobs for people in the marketing/pr side of business. I wonder if the consulting jobs are just not posted or what but I have not seen any. I have seen a lot of great clean tech jobs for people in science.
Great post! Yes, please. But the Clean Tech job search function can be annoying. In my area, it lists Taco Bell general manager as a Clean Tech job. Have you seen the floors at Taco Bell?
