WHAT IS THE ‘ GREEN CEILING ’ FOR WOMEN IN ENERGY ?
LinkedIn research finds that nine in 10 women lack a single green skill while 16 % of men have at least one . It also found that women make up only 33 % of those with green skills or experience globally .
With women still grossly underrepresented in top energy and climate jobs , this has led to a mass call for large-scale businesses – including leading sustainable and clean tech firms – to work harder to promote or hire more women , for the benefit of the workforce , business and industry as a whole .
