Students want their future employers to demonstrate "Green"

Today's Millennnial college students and recent grads are overwhelmingly interested in connecting the "green movement"--i.e., environmental friendliness and responsibility--to their future careers, according to a recent survey by Experience.

Of the more than 2,700 students/grads who participated in the study, 81 percent said it's important for them to work for a "green' company--one that is "green-friendly, green-conscious, or green-certified."

Similarly, 79 percent said they'd be more likely to accept a job offer from a "green" company over an identical offer from another company.
