Earn your money, saving earth

Did you know that...

- over 2.3 million people in the world currently work in Renewable Energy Sources, while by 2030 they are predicted to have already increased tenfold, reaching 20 million?

- workers in sectors related to the environment in general, especially in the EU exceed 3.5 million, i.e. 0.7% of total employment?

Green employment relates to jobs that help protect ecosystems and biodiversity, reduce the consumption of energy, materials and water, free the economy from the production of carbon dioxide, lead to the minimisation and/or total avoidance of waste generation, or fight pollution of all forms. Thus, by offering optimism about the future scenarios regarding the quality of our natural environment, those who pursue a green career are the hope for the future of the planet.

The educational / entertainment activity Earn your money, saving earth of our Museum aims precisely at familiarising the new generation with the availability and the possibility of choosing such a green career, by displaying an indicative series of green professions of the modern labour market, with a parallel description of related employment fields and a presentation of data that highlight them as "professions of the future".
