Australians are often presented with a choice – you can either have more jobs or you can look after the environment. At least, that’s what some of the political rhetoric would have you believe.

But what if you could have your cake and eat it too? What if you could grow the economy while improving the environment?

As the government changes some key environmental policy settings, particularly around climate change, we will need to focus on changing industries through the green training we give future workers.
