Morriss,* William T. Bogart,** Andrew Dorchak,*** & Roger E. **** Meiners Abstract A rapidly growing literature promises that a massive program of government mandates, subsidies, and forced technological interventions will reward the nation with an economy brimming with “green jobs.” Not only will these jobs improve the environment, but they will be high paying, interesting, and provide collective rights. This literature is built on mythologies about economics, forecasting, and technology. Myth: Everyone understands what a “green job” is. Reality: No standard definition of a “green job” exists. Myth: Creating green jobs will boost productive employment. Reality: Green jobs estimates include huge numbers of clerical, bureaucratic, and administrative positions that do not produce goods and services for consumption. Myth: Green jobs forecasts are reliable. Reality: The green jobs studies made estimates using poor economic models based on dubious assumptions. Myth: Green jobs promote employment growth. Reality: By promoting more jobs instead of more productivity, the green jobs described in the literature encourage low-paying jobs in less desirable conditions. Economic growth cannot be ordered by Congress or by the United Nations. Government interference – such as restricting successful technologies in favor of speculative technologies favored by special interests – will generate stagnation. Myth: The world economy can be remade by reducing trade and relying on local production and reduced consumption without dramatically decreasing our standard of living. Reality: History shows that nations cannot produce everything their citizens need or * H.

People and firms have talents that allow specialization that make goods and services ever more efficient and lower-cost, thereby enriching society. Myth: Government mandates are a substitute for free markets. Reality: Companies react more swiftly and efficiently to the demands of their customers and markets, than to cumbersome government mandates. Myth: Imposing technological progress by regulation is desirable. Reality: Some technologies preferred by the green jobs studies are not capable of efficiently reaching the scale necessary to meet today’s demands and could be counterproductive to environmental quality. In this Article, we survey the green jobs literature, analyze its assumptions, and show how the special interest groups promoting the idea of green jobs have embedded dubious assumptions and techniques within their analyses. Before undertaking efforts to restructure and possibly impoverish our society, careful analysis and informed public debate about these assumptions and prescriptions are necessary. Contents! I.!

  • Of Ecological Modernisation?
    JOBS & ENVIRONMENT: THE ‘DOUBLE DIVIDEND’ OF ECOLOGICAL MODERNISATION? Kate Crowley School of Government, University of Tasmania Published as “Jobs & Environment: the Double Dividend of Ecological Modernisation” International Journal of Social Economics, Vol 26, No. 7/8/9, pp. 1013-1026. AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Dr Kate Crowley is a lecturer in environmental policy and public administration in the School of Government, University of Tasmania; GPO Box 252-22, Hobart, Australia, 7001; Ph 61 3 62 262364 Fax 61 3 62 240973; [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper reviews the emergent literature on ecological modernisation and considers its theoretical utility in terms of assessing environmental employment opportunities in Australia. It explores the potential for ecologically modernist policy to offer a way beyond ‘jobs versus environment’ obstacles to greener employment. The future development of post industrial economies is said by ecological modernists to depend upon an ability to produce high value, high quality products with stringent enforcement standards. In these terms, environmental amenity becomes a superior good, and environmental protection not an economic burden, but an opportunity for enhanced growth and job creation (Weale, 1992). The employment impact of such claims is examined in the Australian context. KEYWORDS environment; employment; green jobs; green industry; ecological modernisation; Australia. INTRODUCTION There is a growing body of literature on ecological modernisation as an emergent concept in environmental policy analysis which has both theoretical and practical policy applications (Spaargaren & Mol, 1992, p. 334). Although it remains essentially contested (Boland, 1994, p. 140) this literature has immense utility, I argue, for environmental employment analysis. In an uncritical sense, ecological modernisation does seem to offer both economic promise and green employment creation prospects in Jacobs’s (1994) sense of a ‘double dividend’ below.

An evaluation of definitions and statistics for green activities The report reviews the different initiatives aiming to measure aspects of “green” sectors, jobs and technologies. The report discusses whether the statistics collected under the present initia- tives aimed at measuring these aspects increase insights into the fundamental questions motivating the initiatives. An alternative framework is suggested, as it appears fundamentally impossible to make consistent frameworks for a division of the economy into “green” and “non-green” activities. The analysis has been carried out during the period September 2011 – March 2012 by Vista Analysis AS, Gaia Consulting Oy and University of Aarhus. Gaia Consulting Oy is responsible for the chapters 5.2., 5.3, 6.2, 6.3 and 7.2 only.

Box 5000 Annandale-on-Hudson, NY 12504-5000 http://www.levyinstitute.org Copyright © Levy Economics Institute 2012 All rights reserved ISSN 1547-366X ABSTRACT In most economies, the potential of saving energy via insulation and more efficient uses of electricity is important. In order to reach the Kyoto Protocol objectives, it is urgent to develop policies that reduce the production of carbon dioxide in all sectors of the economy. This paper proposes an analysis of a green-jobs employer-of-last-resort (ELR) program based on a stock- flow consistent (SFC) model with three productive sectors (consumption, capital goods, and energy) and two household sectors (wage earners and capitalists). By increasing the energy efficiency of dwellings and public buildings, the green-jobs ELR sector implies a shift in consumption patterns from energy consumption toward consumption of goods.
