The green economy offers enormous opportunities for job creation, many of which are already underway in the Spanish economy. In Spain, the severity of the recession and the current austerity measures make it difficult to judge the future effect of general contracting in the sectors of the green economy. Nevertheless, some recent studies in Europe have demonstrated that these sectors have weathered the recession better than others by retaining more employment. This study aims to compile and analyze the data on green job creation generated in Spain.
