According to Reason Magazine, “2.7 million green jobs is” NOT “the total number of green jobs in the economy.” It’s actually 140,000.

The Obama Administration created this bogus 2.7 million figure by labeling “trash collectors” and bureaucrats as “green jobs.”

How many people do you think consider a “trash collector” a “green job” or a “green energy” position? No one.

Under the Obama Administration definition of “green job,” the more solid waste there is, and the more pollution there is, the more “green jobs” there are.
