How green is Point Carbon?
The business of analysis might not be the first thing that springs to mind when you hear about "green jobs". But this company plays an important role in limiting greenhouse gases, both through analysis and consultancy.
Point Carbon will for instance advise the Norwegian government on whether to invest in a Chinese hydroelectric power plant in order to earn emission permits.
The company's customers are oil and energy companies, authorities and the finance sector. The company also organises climate conferences and training in emission trading. The employees are often highly educated, some 30 of them have PhDs. Half of the employees are women. The company is carbon neutral, and is owned by the employees and two American investment funds.
