_Part 1: Green jobs: myth and reality _ Part 2: Green policy in partnerships

Part 1 _ Green jobs: myth and reality

Green Jobs: Myth and Reality _Shades of green _ Ecological value added _Green equilibrium dashboard _ Development trends

Shades of Green Employment and Revenue in EU ECO-industries: various definitions EmploymentTotal Turnover Narrow definition ECO industries (mainly pollution prevention or treatment) 2, 3 Mio. € 270 billion + activities closely dependent on a good quality environment (environment-related tourism, organic agriculture, renewable energy etc) 4,4 Mio. € 405 billion + induced 'knock-on' or 'multiplier' effects 8,6 Mio. € 1 trillion Widest definition- includes all activities dependent on the environment (all agriculture, renewable energy etc) 21 Mio. € 3 trillion Source: EC-Website Environment and Employment, quoted from ECORYS 2008

Ecological value added ILO Definition: Green jobs reduce environmental „footprints“ cutting the consumption of energy, raw materials and water, decarbonising and dematerializing the economy; bringing down emissions of greenhouse gases; adapting to climate change; protecting and restoring ecosystem services (Campbell). United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP): Work in agricultural, manufacturing, research and development, administrative and service activities that contribute substantially to preserving or restoring environmental quality CEDEFOP: Green Jobs reduce the environmental impact of enterprises and economic sectors, ultimately to sustainable levels Decent Jobs - Just Transition

Green equilibrium dashboard Source: OECD: Greening Jobs and Skills: The Local Labour Market Implications of addressing Climate Change

Sector Produkt/Service Occupational profile Green Skills Job decency Green workload Production method Green awareness Value chain Industry Organisation Job Green equilibrium dashboard II

Green Jobs: trends _Additional jobs (e.g. pollution control devices) _ Substition of jobs (e.g. shifting from fossil fuels to renewables) _Elimination of jobs (e.g. legal banning of products) _ Transformation of jobs (e.g. new skills) _ Regional shifts in jobs Source: UNDP, OECD

_ Green policy in partnerships Part 2

What are we looking for? _area based partnerships _ with an environmental strategy, based on an in depth analyses as part of an overall strategy with a sole environmental strategy _close collaboration of partners across sectors _ addressing various issues required in green strategies

Something like … Sheffield First

What do we find? _fragmented structures _ no overall environmental strategy, no overall analyses covering different areas missing interlinkages _competition of ‘partners’ alongside institutional and often political thresholds _ addressing particular issues required in Green strategies

Something like … Anonymus LM ED EC IND AG ENV Green Jobs - Green generic skills - Green products - Bio fuels - Low Carbon Economy

And finally … UNTER- NEHMEN ARBEITS -PLATZ „...every workplace and job has the potential, and the need, to become greener“ (EC expert group)
