How do I find a green job?

That’s the title of a column over at Grist by Bowdoin alum, Auden Schendler.

What I like about it is Auden’s emphasis on not waiting for sustainable jobs to slap you in the face.  Rather, work to turn any job—your life—into a greener enterprise.  Those entrepreneurial skills are tremendously important (Teach a man to fish and he’ll eat forever).

His book, Getting Green Done, is a case study on his doing just that at the Aspen Skiing Company.
