MILWAUKEE WATER COMMONS
BLUE GREEN JOBS
According to the United Nations, almost half of the world's workers, 1.5 billion people, work in water related sectors.
Milwaukee's emergence as a model Water City can and should create and sustain water related jobs for our residents. We believe Milwaukee residents can not only find employment related to water, but also become water stewards through their work responsibilities.
We have adopted the term "blue green jobs" to describe jobs that support responsible stewardship of our water resources. We believe that "blue green jobs" for Milwaukee residents can support livelihoods and quality of life, while conserving and protecting water.
