Abstract: The paper presents green jobs as solution for two main challenges of modern economy: young people unemployment and care about environment. Development of technology and youth are the principal agents for socio-economic changes which demand now to empower young people with a supportive environment and appropriate opportunities for employment. In this paper it is proved that reduction of unemployment can be achieved by creation of new green jobs, which are also available for not qualified young people or other unemployed candidates, who need to change their occupation.
