    "Green collar jobs currently make up around 1.5% of all jobs advertised in Australia. Peter Hooper, GreenCollar Talent’s Managing Director, believes today’s news means that the likelihood of a ‘green job boom’ is good. “Now is the time to for us to keep our focus and maintain our efforts to continue supplying only the best available green-collar talent to the renewable energy, carbon and sustainability markets. This is something which has been long-awaited and we are more than ready for the challenge.”

    Sounds warm and fuzzy. Probably same old argument in the end, Aust not competitive and the jobs will go off shore, every other industry has done it so I fail to see why this one doesn't. How many of the solar panels and inverters etc are made in Aust?
