With unemployment climbing towards 10%, there are a lot of folks that have been recently laid off. This can actually be a blessing in disguise. This can be the perfect time to start your green jobs search or green up your routine. I will be writing a series of articles about green jobs and the recession that will be filled with useful tips and suggestions. With this article, I wanted to start with one very simple concept that is easy to do and could have a huge benefit for the environment.

If you have been downsized recently and are in the midst of a job search that seems to be going nowhere, why not try a different direction. Have you ever considered working for yourself? Being your own boss could be very rewarding and could also help the green movement. How can this help? Well, if you work for yourself you can work from home and by skipping the commute you will be dramatically reducing your carbon footprint. There are also things that you would never even think off that benefit the environment. For example, you control the account of energy that you use. Instead of turning on the lights, you may consider opening up the blinds. You can also drink water from the tap instead of buying bottled water throughout the day. You can brew your own coffee instead of using the styrofoam cups from Dunkin Donuts. These little things really add up. Plus, think of all the money you would be saving.

About a year ago, I made the decision to forgo the office and I work from home and so does my staff. It has been a positive change in my life and I feel good knowing that I am doing my part to help the environment.
