Green Jobs for Buffalo is an innovative initiative to prepare workers to meet this increased demand. The program will provide on-the-job training, employment placement, career pathways, and green business incubation for low-income people and people of color in emerging green sectors of the economy. Green Jobs for Buffalo will achieve triple-bottom-line returns, yielding positive results for people, for the planet, and for profit margins. In other words, it will promote equitable opportunities and benefits, environmental restoration and protection, and economic growth and prosperity. As the local community-based organization PUSH Buffalo (People United for Sustainable Housing) says,going green is not just a lifestyle; it's about survival.
