23 Job Market Environmental Protection Jobs Renewable Energy The percentage of environmental technologies of the German GDP will rise from 11% in 2011 to presumably over 20% by Worldwide, environmental technologies reached a volume of more than billion EUR. In 2025 it will probably be more than twice as much: more than bn. EUR. The predicted yearly growth will therefore be more than 5%. (Mitteilung Nr. 119 /12 des Bundesministeriums für Umwelt, Naturschutz und Reaktorsicherheit) The branch of industry environmental and climate protection will grow above-average. Dr. Dietmar Edler, Deutsches Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung Berlin 2011 In environmental protection there is an immense potential for economic growth and a low-carbon and therefore environmentally more friendly future. Green investments are the essential answer to the economic and climate crises. State Secretary in the Federal Environment Ministry, Matthias Machnig, zur Konferenz in Syracusalt. BMU Pressedienst Nr. 118/09 -- Internationaler Umweltschutz Increase opportunities for technical education and labour training. Develop job opportunities in environment related infrastructure programs. OECD Economic Survey Brazil 2011, S. 149

24 Worldwide: tons of waste per day! The daily amount of solid urban waste has increased sevenfold during the last 100 years, whereas the world population tripled. The reasons are the increasing consumption, the throw-away mentality and the introduction of new material and packaging. These in turn are the consequences of a linear model of life and economic system, which comply with the behaviour of the consumer. For Keep Going we are lacking time, space and resources.
