Green Careers Week?

Taking place from the 6th to the 11th November 2023, Green Careers Week promotes and highlights the various environmentally conscious career opportunities for young people to help the UK move towards it's goal of achieving Net Zero by 2050.  With two-thirds of 10,000 16-25 year olds across 10 different countries stating that they 'were worried' about climate change, in a study from the University of Bath, let's dive into the range of careers to help support our Earth's future! 

An Environmental Scientist

An environmental scientist studies the environment, plants, animals, humans and how these different areas are interlinked to uncover ways for us to adopt more sustainable practices. Their research also gives advice on what is harming the environment and how we can tack it.

Green Energy and Technology

From solar power to wind turbines, establishing renewable energy resources is vital for the health of our planet. You could be responsible for working in industries to create cutting-edge technology to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change.  Check out these Green Careers at bp! 

Environmental Law

Environmental lawyers use their legal knowledge and analytical skills to make our world greener. They could be advising big companies about their legal obligations to the environment. They also work for the government, helping to come up with new laws that protect the earth. Considering a law career? Check out our Law Career Zone!
