Findings:

• In the O*NET report, this cluster is described as encompassing “‘indirect jobs’ to the green economy and includes activities such as energy consulting or research and other related business services.” Clearly, this cluster has a far-ranging scope, with occupations as diverse as Reporters and correspondents to Atmospheric and space scientists.

• The first table, 7-A, has a heavy dose of occupations that require at least a Bachelor’s degree. Many of those occupations are showing growth when new and replacement jobs are factored in.
