<ul class="summary-list"><li>Georgia has received more private investment in EVs and battery manufacturing than any other state.</li><li>Gov. Brian Kemp said Georgia will be the "electric mobility capital of the world."</li></ul>Electric vehicle investments are surging in Georgia.According to a recent Wells Fargo <a target="_blank" href="https://wellsfargo.bluematrix.com/links2/html/2379e487-7800-433a-95b9-735589c4e1a1">report</a>, Georgia has received more private investments in electric vehicle and battery manufacturing than any other state, with just over $23 billion to date.Jackie Benson, an economist at Wells Fargo, told Business Insider that the state is poised to be a hub for EVs because of its business-friendly environment, robust population growth, and federal and state incentives attracting companies to the state.Since 2022, the Peach State has added over 30,000 clean energy jobs, more than any other state, according to a June <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.ossoff.senate.gov/press-releases/new-study-inflation-reduction-act-has-created-over-30000-georgia-jobs/">study</a> by Climate Power, a strategic communications firm. This comes as federal investment in green energy is ramping up, and people are <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/wealthy-leaving-california-new-york-moving-florida-texas-reasons-effects-2024-8">flocking south</a> for a lower cost of living and better economic opportunities.<h2 id="b74fbdcb-0db7-4a0a-afa0-222558bdddc9">Investments in the Battery Belt to boost EV manufacturing and infrastructure</h2>In 2023, Gov. Brian Kemp said that Georgia would become the "electric mobility capital of the world," per the <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.ajc.com/news/georgia-is-creating-its-first-ever-climate-plan-heres-what-to-expect/RKDANAY5DBCJLHYCUXVYCUDB5Q/">Atlanta-Journal Constitution</a>. So far, it's looking promising.Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee are a part of the Battery Belt and have received nearly $77 billion in private investment in EV battery manufacturing to date, according to an August <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.atlasevhub.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/2024.08_Atlas-EV-Investment-Brief.pdf">report</a> by Atlas Public Policy.It's not just southern states: Michigan leads the nation in capacity for electric vehicle battery manufacturing, but Georgia is second, according to a January <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.edf.org/media/analysis-finds-us-electric-vehicle-battery-manufacturing-track-meet-demand">report</a> by the Environmental Defense Fund, a nonprofit advocacy group.The state has also greatly benefited from federal investments in green energy and electric vehicle manufacturing and infrastructure. The Biden Administration <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2023/04/17/fact-sheet-biden-harris-administration-announces-new-private-and-public-sector-investments-for-affordable-electric-vehicles/">aims</a> for 50% of new vehicles in 2030 to be EVs, and investment in green energy in Georgia is partly a result of the 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and 2022 Inflation Reduction Act.The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Georgia-Fact-Sheet.pdf">allocated</a> over $175 million toward the EV battery supply chain in Georgia and $135 million over five years toward infrastructure for EV charging stations in Georgia. In February, Hyundai <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/hyundai-announces-new-production-start-date-at-metaplant-america-during-hyundai-day-in-georgia-302071754.html#:~:text=Hyundai%20Motor%20Group%20is%20investing,that%20will%20employ%203%2C500%20workers.">announced</a> over $7 billion in investment in production facilities in Georgia. The company estimates their investments in Georgia will create nearly 40,000 jobs in the state."The Hyundai investment specifically has boosted Georgia's profile in terms of EV production on the national stage," Benson said.The Inflation Reduction Act also created a $7,500 tax credit for new EVs for both consumers and businesses and incentivized efforts to boost domestic EV supply chains.In May, Kia <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.ossoff.senate.gov/press-releases/u-s-federal-manufacturing-incentives-working-for-georgia-kia-begins-ev9-production-in-west-point/">announced</a> the production of its first American-made EV at its production facility in West Point, Georgia, enabling the company to take advantage of the tax credit.Manufacturing accounts for 10% of Georgia's gross state product, which is its economic output, and construction accounts for 4%, according to Wells Fargo.Investments in EV and battery manufacturing will boost job growth and output in both of these sectors, Benson said.While government, health care, and leisure are the leading industry drivers in Georgia, investments in manufacturing are poised to boost the state's overall economic growth.<h2 id="fb9799f7-223c-4b7b-9f9e-5b994c7dac21">Georgia transplants are helping fuel economic growth in the state</h2>Georgia's real GDP outpaced the nation in the first quarter of the year, at 2.3% and 1.4%, respectively. In seven of the last 10 years, the state's GDP has outpaced the national average, according to Wells Fargo.Strong population growth remains a tailwind for Georgia's economic growth and EV industry, Benson said.Between 2021 and 2022, there were 327,795 people who moved into Georgia, according to data from the Census Bureau. The Peach State had the fifth most new residents during that time, following Florida, Texas, California, and North Carolina.New state residents means more consumers at stores, more homebuyers and renters, and more demand for goods in Georgia, fueling economic activity.Among those people who moved from another US state into Georgia, nearly 26,000 came from California, and more than 23,000 from both Texas and North Carolina, according to data from the Census Bureau.The biggest influx of new residents in Georgia came from outside the US. Between 2021 and 2022, just over 60,000 people from abroad moved to Georgia, per Census Bureau data.Benson said single-family construction has recently scaled up in the state, in line with its robust population growth.Benson said the scale-up in single-family construction has helped shore up construction employment. The three-month moving average for job growth in construction in the state was up 0.1% year-over-year in July, the report noted.Unemployment in Georgia remains below the national average and is only 40 basis points higher than its historic low in 2022, Benson said."Nationwide, we're seeing builders pull back on single-family construction for multiple reasons," Benson said. "But in Georgia, that high population growth has spurred an upshift in single-family building this year. That's something unique to the state."Do you live in the Battery Belt?

<ul><li>The demand for AI &amp; ML specialists is anticipated to grow by 40%, resulting in the creation of around a million jobs. </li><li>The green transition has the potential to create 30 million jobs worldwide by 2030. </li><li>The education industry is predicted to create 3 million new positions for vocational education, university and higher education teachers. </li></ul>As the world prepares for a technological disruption, it would result in job losses. But this sector also contributes to employment growth with some of the fastest growing job roles. The demand for AI and machine learning (ML) specialists will grow at the fastest rate in the next five years, as per a report by the World Economic Forum. They are followed by sustainability specialists, business intelligence analysts and information security analysts, says WEF’s Future of Jobs Report 2023. The report's conclusions are based on a survey of the biggest global employers regarding their projections for job trends and directions between 2023 and 2027. Overall 69 million jobs are expected to be created in the next five years. As industries continue to transform through the increased usage of AI and machine learning, the demand for AI and ML specialists is anticipated to grow by 40%, resulting in the creation of around a million jobs. The rise of data-driven decision-making across industries is driving a 30-35% increase in demand (1.4 million) for roles such as data analysts and scientists, big data specialists, business intelligence analysts, database and network professionals, and data engineers. This growth is due to advances and growth in adoption of frontier technologies which rely heavily on big data, the report says. Rapid growth of green jobs across sectors The shift towards renewable energy has also contributed to relatively fast-growing roles such as renewable energy engineers and solar energy installation and system engineers. “To meet the goals of the Paris Agreement – a pledge to keep global temperature rises below 2ºC and pursue efforts to limit them to 1.5ºC – large scale global action towards a green transition is ongoing and expected to accelerate. While transitioning to a green economy will disrupt labour markets over the next decade it will also create significant new job opportunities,” says the report. The report indicates that investments in the green transition, broader implementation of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards, and climate-change adaptation are anticipated to have strong positive impacts on job creation. Further analysis of the data reveals that job creation will be particularly significant in the energy and materials and infrastructure sectors, with roughly 10% more companies expecting job creation as a result of these effects. The roles of sustainability specialists and environmental protection professionals are predicted to increase by 33% and 34%, respectively. This growth is expected to result in approximately a million new jobs. The International Energy Agency (IEA) has estimated that a green-recovery scenario could result in almost 3.5% of additional GDP growth globally and create a net employment impact of 9 million new jobs annually. Additionally, the green transition has the potential to create 30 million jobs worldwide by 2030 in clean energy, efficiency, and low-emissions technologies. Education, agriculture &amp; e-commerce The education industry is predicted to see a 10% increase in jobs, resulting in 3 million new positions for vocational education teachers and university and higher education teachers. Agricultural professionals, particularly agricultural equipment operators, are projected to experience a 30% rise in job opportunities, resulting in an additional three million jobs. Around four million digitally-enabled roles, including e-commerce specialists, digital transformation specialists, and digital marketing and strategy specialists, will be added in five years.

By the end of 2023, there are expected to be as many as 18.5 million of such jobs across industries and this will almost double by 2047, says Teamlease. Here is the catch – while universities and colleges are catching up, it’s not as fast as the demand growth. The growth in green job postings is around 15% in the last one year, says LinkedIn. Naukri pegs it as high as 27% with the EV sector being the star. “According to the Global Green Skills Report 2023 by LinkedIn, India has seen a 140% jump in auto industry workers with Electric Vehicle(EV) skills from 2018-23. This is the highest growth rate globally,” said Hari Krishnan Nair, Co-founder, Great Learning. Jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs Green jobs are expected to almost double by 2047, i.e. touch 35 million. Apart from electrification of vehicles, greening the entire supply chain through green procurement, electrification of fleets, reduction of waste, packaging and optimization of inventory — is also expected to produce more jobs. “The jobs are at all levels — from entry, mid and senior level. While entry level jobs are on creating and implementing <keyword id="95422" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Green-Technology" source="Orion">green technology</keyword> and supporting consulting practices and R&amp;D. The mid and senior levels are mostly around R&amp;D, supervisory and project ownership roles and more strategic in nature,” said Sumit Kumar, chief business officer, TeamLease Degree Apprenticeship. Green job roles are being created around sustainability, environmental, social and governance (ESG). “Governance specialists, renewable energy experts, being hired across sectors where there is an immense focus on sustainability and ESG,” said Parag Ghatpande, director - assessment solutions at Aon India. <table style="border-width: initial;

Krishnan says that the rapid industrial expansion outpaces curriculum updates in colleges, resulting in a shortage of skilled talent. Most of the expertise that’s needed to drive India’s green transformation requires strong foundational STEM (Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) skills. “Currently, the key qualifications needed for such (green) roles would be an engineering degree with 5-10 years’ experience within the sustainability sector and experience of sustainability certification schemes,” says Ghatpande. In fact, most of the jobs require engineering degrees — both standalone or specialised to environment science. “The common degrees are Environmental Science or Engineering for roles in environmental conservation and management. Renewable Energy Engineering or Sustainable Energy Studies for careers in the renewable energy sector. Agricultural Science or Sustainable Agriculture for those interested in sustainable farming practices,” says Jaideep P Kewalramani, head of employability business and COO, TeamLease EdTech. Green certifications in vogue On top of the basic degrees, there are certifications as well. Green Building Certifications such as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) for sustainable construction and architecture. Certifications in Environmental Management like ISO 14001, for professionals focusing on sustainability within organisations. For now, organisations which quickly need a lot of employees with green skills are developing talent by upskilling and reskilling the existing workforce on green technologies. “Also there is an active collaboration with academia in curating programs to create talent pipelines,” says Kumar. Added to that several online learning platforms offer tailored certificate courses and modules to help professionals kickstart their careers in the EV industry. “These courses often feature industry-relevant curricula, real-world projects, live mentorship by experts, and expert-led masterclasses,” says Krishnan. India is steadfast in its commitment to go green. As such jobs explode, it’s up to the professionals and young aspirants to build their green skills to move towards a sustainable career ahead.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Angel Hutchinson, a South African au pair, has cared for one child in Maryland since 2019.</li><li>Hutchinson has worked for four wealthy families since 2015, facing both challenges and perks.</li></ul>Angel Hutchinson, 31, was born and raised in Durban, South Africa, but now lives in Maryland, where she's worked as an <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/au-pair-care-vs-nanny-childcare-2024-1">au pair</a> for almost five years.Hutchinson's current employers are the fourth wealthy family she's worked for stateside since September 2015. She's parlayed those experiences into a<a target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@angel__0209"> successful side hustle on TikTok</a>, helping other would-be au pairs follow in her footsteps.She told Business Insider that the difference between an au pair and a <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/nanny-share-benefits-less-expensive-childcare-social-interaction-2024-3">nanny</a> is in the scope of the role. "An au pair is like a cousin who lives with you and is part of the family — when they go out for dinner, you all go out for dinner," she said. "I'm the extra eyes for the parents."Hutchinson has had negative and positive experiences — in some families, she felt unwelcome and overworked, but in others, she's been whisked off on snowboarding trips and vacations in Puerto Rico.<h2 id="0711039e-5cc2-478c-afd6-4a14ece3c8d4">The job is quite low-paying, but there are perks</h2>Overseas applicants will likely be recruited under the <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/moved-us-student-visa-work-microsoft-green-card-2024-9">J-1 visa</a> rules. "It doesn't count as a job. It's more like a cultural exchange program, often below minimum wage. It is peanuts," she said.She said au pairs are not allowed to be required to work nights, in particular, but will typically work 45 hours per week and a maximum of 10 hours a day.Board and lodging are covered, but wages are considered pocket money: the<a target="_blank" href="https://www.aupairusa.org/au-pair-cost/#:~:text=The%20minimum%20weekly%20stipend%20for,stipend%20of%20%24225.00%20per%20week."> State Department has set a current minimum of $225.00 per week</a>. Some more seasoned au pairs, she said, make $300-350.She earns more than this because she negotiated a higher than minimum wage. "Au pairs are allowed to negotiate for more; however, most families pay this because au pairs are afraid to speak up."<h2 id="eb5135dd-4d4c-4edd-a1e2-e2f8a28605cb">The application process is rigorous but straightforward</h2>Hutchinson studied theology and planned to go into ministry full-time. "My family felt I was wasting my life by coming to live with another family, but I was frustrated with life at that moment. I was in a relationship but wasn't sure if I wanted to get married yet. So I was like, OK, I'm going to find out."Hutchinson's interest in becoming an au pair was sparked by her college dean, who talked fondly of her experiences as an au pair in America two decades earlier. "She still spoke with her family, who would visit her."She filled out the forms and paid fees to one of the many agencies she found online — around 1300 ZAR, or about $70. She had to have a driver's license and a high school education and undergo medical checks.Once accepted, she was asked to upload a profile, including a video, which interested families could browse. Typically, they would video chat with a potential au pair from afar before hiring one for a 12-month position.<h2 id="431f484e-69df-4fc8-91de-6300511c1208">Hutchinson was unhappy with her first two families</h2>Hutchinson's first employers didn't ring alarm bells until she landed in America. "I remember getting a tour of the house, and when I was done, they told me to go unpack my stuff in my room. I closed the door and bawled my eyes out," she said. "I just felt like something was off."This couple were wealthy Indian-Americans in New Jersey; the father was a pharmaceutical VP, and the mother a medical director. There were two children, aged 13 and 6, where the latter was Hutchinson's prime focus. "It felt like they were unprepared for me or had forgotten I was coming in the three months since we last spoke."The main issue was a misunderstanding of her role, stretching the definition of childcare. "I had to water the plants — because they were the kid's favorite. I had to dust the cupboard — because the kid's doll was on top of it."She also struggled to connect with the kids, as they would speak Bengali to their parents. She quickly asked for a rematch (au pair speak for resigning). "They said you can't go because we've already had two girls leave before you."A week later, Hutchinson's father died, and she was offered compassionate leave to return to South Africa for the funeral. Once home, she rematched there, returning three weeks later to a different family, but not a better situation.This was another New Jersey-based family, with two school-age kids of 5 and 8, a mother who worked as a deputy principal, and a father who ran a tech business. The mom had described her kids to Hutchinson as "having a lot of energy."The truth was more complicated: Her special needs kids were in therapy and rarely able to play with other au pairs' children at the playground. The daughter was particularly difficult for Hutchinson to care for.<h2 id="43f3c48b-429a-4db1-b767-bc0a04acbab1">The third family was a better fit</h2>By January 2016, Hutchinson was primed to return to South Africa, but she tried to rematch one last time. This family proved life-changing. "I still visit them to this day," she said.This Colorado-based couple, both anesthesiologists, had a 9-year-old daughter and a 3-year-old son. They lived in the mountains and drove a nine-seater Denali. "We went on vacation a lot. They're a snowboarding family, so they taught me, and we went camping."She never felt pressured to work late and could come and go as she pleased. Hutchinson felt very much at home in the Rockies. "The people were so welcoming in <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/biggest-culture-shocks-after-moving-from-italy-to-colorado-2024-8">Colorado</a> — it's by far the best place I lived."<h2 id="bcc44968-fb3f-4d6d-9063-520f63ed6167">She went back to South Africa, but it wasn't a forever move</h2>After that stay, she went home. Two years later, after spending time in South Africa looking after a boy for a German family in her neighborhood, she decided to come back to the States.A different, wealthy family spotted her video and asked if she'd consider coming to live with them in Maryland. The mother was a thoracic surgeon, and the father was a VP. They had one young child, barely 6 at the time.The moment she arrived in September 2019, Hutchinson felt at home. "They were overprepared, trying to ensure I had the best time ever."Almost five years later, Hutchinson is so settled with them that she's more like a surrogate daughter. They buy her a pair of the family's matching pajamas at Christmas, and she's always invited to family gatherings. "The only time I don't do something with them is if I don't want to."She also drives a brand-new VW Jetta. "In other families, you have to share a car to go to the store or have to ask. This one said 'We bought this car for you to use. You can have freedom and a sense of independence. Come and go when you want.'"She doesn't work weekends, which frees her up to socialize. "All the people I now call my best friends are Americans I met at church." Hutchinson said it's partly because her principles in life align with those of her current employer that she finds the job so rewarding.<div type="image" title="three girls take a selfie in New York City" height="2268" width="4032" msid="113521902" hostid="261" sizebytes="637314"></div><h2 id="b61bd862-494a-40c2-9bb6-7ecb033be40a">She decided to make America her permanent home</h2>Hutchinson is currently waiting for approval for her <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/big-tech-green-card-applications-pause-2024-5">green card</a>, which those employers sponsored.

AGEL is the clean energy unit of the Adani Group, the biggest coal miner and importer in India founded by <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/who-is-gautam-adani-indian-industrialist-billionaire-wealth-elon-musk-2022-12">billionaire Gautam Adani</a> in 1988. Adani is currently the second richest person in Asia, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.forbesindia.com/article/explainers/top-10-richest-people-asia/88245/1">according to Forbes</a>.The Adani Group has promised to dump $70 billion into clean energy by 2030 — including $20 billion on this project alone — as India tries to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/19/business/india-adani-green-energy-plant-climate-intl-hnk/index.html">CNN reported</a>."There is no choice for India but to start doing things at a previously unimagined size and scale," Sagar Adani, the 30-year-old nephew of Gautum Adani and the executive director of AGEL, told CNN.India — the <a target="_blank" href="https://climatepromise.undp.org/what-we-do/where-we-work/india">third-largest energy consumer in the world</a>, 73% of which comes from coal — has pledged to reach net-zero emissions by 2070, two <a target="_blank" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/us-long-term-strategy.pdf">decades later than the US has pledged</a>. India also hopes to get half of its energy from renewable sources by 2030.And AGEL's massive new plant could be a major step in making that happen.The project, expected to be finished in five years, will create 15,200 green jobs and produce enough clean energy to power 16 million Indian homes, AGEL <a target="_blank" href="https://www.adanigreenenergy.com/newsroom/media-releases/Adani-Green-Energy-operationalizes-1000-MW-of-the-30000-MW-Khavda-renewable-energy-park">said in a press release on its website</a>.As India develops, Sagar Adani told CNN he hopes his country does not burn through as much fossil fuel as other countries did during their developments."If India does what China did, if India does what Europe did, if India does what the US did, then we are all in for a very, very bleak climatic future," Sagar Adani told the outlet.However, AGEL's plant and green energy commitments are still built on profits from coal production.The Adani Group's coal mining operations make up at least 3% of the world's coal-based carbon dioxide emissions, and the group makes 62% of its revenue from fossil fuel, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2022-09-09/world-s-third-richest-billionaire-adani-pivots-from-coal-mogul-to-green-champion?sref=yaJhKSOh">Bloomberg reported</a>.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Jordan Page was deeply unhappy in his 9-to-5 digital content job at a Fortune 500 company.</li><li>He said listening to Charli XCX's album "Brat" inspired him to quit and have a carefree summer.</li></ul>On Friday, June 7, I had a call with my manager. It didn't go well.She had returned from vacation and was unhappy with my performance. I thought everything was fine, seeing as I'd received positive feedback from other senior staff.I'd worked in a digital content role at a Fortune 500 company for under a year and questioned whether it was right for me the entire time.After being laid off last July, I freelanced for a few months but felt pressure from people close to me to get a full-time job. I also craved the security and permanency I thought a large corporation would offer.I landed my digital content job in November 2023. Working in a corporate setting gave me a daily routine, a regular payday, and private healthcare, but I felt unfulfilled. The job description had included writing, but shifting business priorities quickly changed that. Also, my relationship with my manager had never taken off.I felt stuck, creatively stunted, and climbing the corporate ladder in an industry I didn't care about.<h2 id="ef0fcce8-d166-41f5-9a03-22c291bf0c21">I deeply related to the themes in Charli XCX's 'Brat'</h2>On that early June evening, after being reprimanded by my manager, I sat chain-smoking on my balcony and put on a new album I'd been looking forward to.Drained, I let the music of Charli XCX's "Brat" wash over me."Sympathy is a Knife," a track about spiraling self-doubt, was instantly relatable. The album's final song, "365," described a never-ending party and reminded me I deserve to have fun.These contrasting songs perfectly reflected my current existence.On Fridays, I'd go out with friends and have a great time, but I was filled with a sense of dread when Sunday hit. I felt like two different people: my true, extroverted self on the weekends and when I was writing and, mid-week, my anxious and unhappy shadow self.I'd tried putting everything into my new role. I'd tried not caring so much. Neither had worked. I'd told friends about my dissatisfaction, and they all said to do what made me happy.At that point, happiness — without a follow-up of guilt and dread — was an emotion I hadn't felt for a long time."Brat" was the perfect soundtrack for a fun-filled summer I desperately wanted. The album is centered on living life to the fullest. If I wanted to experience that, I needed to quit my job.<h2 id="b689773f-cd56-4fe4-a7af-1d73b9b37215">It wasn't just about partying</h2>Charli XCX<a target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@charlixcx/video/7386786386298342688?is_from_webapp=1&amp;web_id=7326907923145197099"> described</a> a "brat" on her personal TikTok as someone "who feels herself but maybe also has a breakdown. But kind of like parties through it, is very honest, very blunt. A little bit volatile."This was my "brat" moment.Writing has always been my passion, but I'd never seriously considered doing it full-time. I'd always worked in content or marketing roles because I was worried about financial security.At the beginning of this job, I'd hardly freelanced, putting all my energy into my new role. As time passed and I grew increasingly unhappy, I spent more free time writing, desperate to feel a sense of purpose.My parents agreed with my decision to quit. They'd never seen me so unhappy, so it felt easier to make what seemed like an extreme decision with them in my corner.With decent pay from the corporate role, I'd saved around £6,000, around $7,800, to live on as I tried to build a career as a writer.I handed in my notice the following Monday and felt instant relief. That day, a senior team member told me they'd never seen me so happy.<h2 id="9c1a13c6-42fe-4732-9a53-b10a63eed773">I had a half "brat" summer</h2>"Brat" was everywhere this summer. Brands and celebrities, including Kamala Harris' presidential campaign, co-opted lime-green memes with lowercase black writing. National news outlets had to write explainers titled "<a target="_blank" href="https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/article/2024/jul/16/brat-summer-is-the-long-era-of-clean-living-finally-over">What is 'brat'</a>?"My friends knew about my work saga and laughed when I explained my "Brat" and cigarette-assisted epiphany. But when I told them I'd quit, I could see the shock on their faces.I was leaving a company to work for myself during a cost-of-living crisis. They were concerned.Their worries made me question my decision, but ultimately, I thought I'd never be as unhappy working for myself as I was in that job.My finish date fell just before a trip to California in July, closely followed by a visit to a friend's home in Turkey. I needed time off to regroup and relax. I returned feeling motivated to put everything into my writing career. I was strict with my weekday schedule and constantly "on." On the weekends, I could let go and have fun, knowing my week was spent doing work I cared about.Without a monthly paycheck, I've had to be more responsible with money. Some months were harder, with weddings and festivals, but I'm learning.<h2 id="30337906-ea1f-4a3c-84b5-620f3eaf98a5">I don't regret quitting for a 'brat summer'</h2>I haven't regretted my decision once.Although the album was the catalyst for my quitting, I'd been unhappy at work for a long time. As a freelancer, I now work when I finally feel fulfilled.I've worked harder in the last three months than ever before. Some work days start at 6 a.m. and end at 10 p.m. I sometimes work on weekends, and some days I have nothing to do. But it's work I love to do.Would I have quit my job if "Brat" hadn't been released? Eventually, but it would've likely been later when my mental health had deteriorated even more. The album felt like a sign, and knowing it led to being the happiest I've ever been in my career, I'm grateful that it came when it did.Now, I work shifts for a newspaper, write articles about topics I care about, and, as of next month, write while traveling the world.My work may be unpredictable and the financial shift from a salaried role has been a learning experience. But I have the freedom to enjoy the work I love, which is all that matters to me.

I quit my job at a Fortune 500 company to embrace 'Brat summer.' My friends were concerned.

However, a macrotrend listed in the report deserves attention. According to the report, businesses expect that the greatest net job creation impact will come from investments that support the green transformation of businesses, the wider adoption of ESG standards, and the localization of supply chains. While this is a broader trend that will change the future job landscape as much as AI will, now is perhaps the best time ever to build a career in ESG. “ESG as an industry or segment is growing and in India while we are late at it, I think in India the main reason for ESG growth is largely because you now have the government initiatives and the target of being net zero by 2070,” says says Munira Loliwala, business head, TeamLease Digital, a tech staffing solutions firm. Growth in <keyword id="14096025" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="esg-jobs" source="Orion">ESG jobs</keyword> ESG jobs are employment opportunities centered around Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors. These roles involve responsibilities related to sustainable business practices, impact investing, corporate social responsibility, environmental preservation, social justice, diversity and inclusion, ethical governance, and related areas. According to TeamLease Digital, between 2021 and 2022, <keyword id="17432479" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="esg-hiring" source="Orion">ESG hiring</keyword> and new demands grew almost by more than 147%, as compared to 2020-2021, wherein the post Covid year marked almost 85% of growth in hiring by organizations in India. March 2023 saw approximately 19,379 of active job postings for ESG roles, while December 2022, and January 2023 saw the highest number of jobs closed. The average number of ESG jobs posted stood at 12,400 between December 2022, and March 2023, while the average number of closed positions were 14,136. The average number of active ESG related jobs were 24,000. Organizations embracing ESG “ESG plays an important role if India has to attract global investments. ESG increases the chances of investments or chances of the acquisitions that most of the Indian companies today are looking at,” says Loliwala. Both big and small corporations in India have embraced ESG. Reliance Industries, for example, has integrated ESG into their business models. Led by their chief financial officer, their ESG team is a multi-disciplinary group responsible for all of Reliance’s environmental sustainability, stakeholder engagement and regulatory compliance activities. In order to enhance their commitment to ESG principles, HDFC Bank has formed an ESG committee. This committee consists of senior members from key departments within the bank and is chaired by a member of the senior management team. The ESG committee is responsible for developing and implementing the bank's ESG strategy, as well as establishing a roadmap to achieve the set targets. They report to the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) committee of the Board of Directors, providing updates on the bank's ESG strategy and progress. kindlife, a beauty and wellness platform which launched in 2020, has a strong ESG focus. “Our ESG goals are only achievable with a strong team who works tirelessly to bring our vision to life. We work closely with internationally renowned advisors armed with over 20 years of experience. We’ve worked closely with the World Bank and government bodies in the sustainability and clean energy space,” says Radhika Ghai, founder and CEO, kindlife. They have a team of two consultants who are guiding them with assessing their impact across various parameters and projects. They are also gearing towards their next critical goal of 100% carbon neutrality and a sustainable score for brands and products for which they are working closely with Sishir Garemella, a clean energy and climate technology expert. Talent in demand ESG jobs do not necessarily require skills in the sustainability domain. “Green jobs or jobs in the ESG space, can be found in a wide range of industries, from renewable energy and clean technology to sustainable agriculture and waste management. There are three categories of green jobs based on their degree of dependence on green skills,” says Manu Saigal, director, general staffing, Adecco India. Jobs that require green skills: These are jobs that cannot be performed without specialized knowledge of environmental sustainability. Examples include renewable energy technicians, environmental engineers, and sustainability consultants. Jobs with significant potential to create and hone green skills: “These are jobs that are not necessarily focused on environmental sustainability but have the potential to develop green skills,” says Saigal. Examples include architects and construction workers who build energy-efficient buildings and farmers who use sustainable agriculture practices. Jobs that do not require green skills: “These are jobs that are not specifically related to environmental sustainability but may contribute to sustainability indirectly,” says Saigal. Examples include accountants who work for green businesses and marketing professionals who promote environmentally friendly products. The crucial aspect of ESG is now focused on proper data analysis, collection, reporting, investigation, and filing. The typical structure involves using various frameworks to collect and analyze data, which requires hiring individuals at entry-level and mid-level positions with backgrounds in computer science, mathematics, or engineering. ESG data is considered a type of alternative data that can be utilized in the analysis of companies. As a result, investors and hedge funds are utilizing it to identify investment opportunities with lower risk by assessing a company's favourable environmental and ethical factors. Organizations are also looking to appoint applicants who have qualifications in energy, social environment, sustainable business management and environmental studies, wind and solar energies. And one important subject could also be economics and law. A lot of certification courses are available in this space today. There are courses on sustainability accounting, reporting and sustainable investing. <keyword id="17432478" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="esg-job-roles" source="Orion">ESG job
