Most people searching for a career want satisfaction from their job, as well as a paycheck from it. The way they see to achieve this is to go to a good school and do well so they can land a top job.
There are those, however, who prefer a job that achieves some good in the world, even if they do not make a lot of money at it.
To some, that would seem odd, but there are people who find that it is more important to do a job that makes them feel that they are doing good, is satisfying and helps the earth, all at the same time.
But most would agree that a job that helps the earth at the same time that it give job satisfaction is well worth having. Just imagine such a job.
One of the best examples of this kind of job is a job in alternative energy.
The field of alternative energy offers many kinds of jobs. Many people in this field run and maintain the power plants (such as plant operators or mechanics), others develop new forms of alternative energy (scientists or engineers), and others help all of it happen in the first place by investing in alternative energy or becoming shareholders in alternative energy companies. In addition to having a fulfilling career, these people are contributing to the good of the world.
Ofcourse, there are those that work in this field simply because that is where they found a job. But even these people at the lower jobs can feel that they are helping the earth.
Those who seek out jobs in alternative energy are devoting their talents to a better world.
This industry is growing rapidly because many governments are supporting it. Investors are becoming interested in this field because they recognize that the world will probably be run on alternative energy in the future. As oil becomes more and more expensive, alternative energy becomes more and more attractive.
As a matter of fact, the day may come when alternative energy is the primary source of power. Investors who believe this are putting their money into it today. This will create more and more jobs in this field.
The promise of alternative energy is great. Those who are looking for employment in a growing field while they also get satisfaction from their jobs will be attracted to this field, and live with the comfort of knowing they are helping the world at the same time.
