This past Monday, June 15, people around the world will were celebrating Global Wind Day.

The Global Wind Energy Council thought up the idea to give people around the world an opportunity to show their support for wind energy, and to highlight wind power not only as a real solution to global climate change, but also to highlight the economic benefits of investment in wind power such as high quality green jobs. There will be thousands of simultaneous celebrations going on in more than 25 countries around the world.

"In the United States, Global Wind Day comes at a time when the nation is surging forward in wind and renewable energy development, but risks losing this momentum and leaving tens of thousands of jobs on the cutting room floor if we do not adopt a strong renewable energy policy," said Denise Bode, CEO of the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA). "America trails China and Europe in passing renewable energy policy commitments. It's time for a national renewable electricity standard (RES) here in the U.S. to seize this historic opportunity to create jobs, build up our renewable energy industry, and fight climate change."

Wind energy supporters can join AWEA's call for an RES through a number of events and activities on Global Wind Day, click here for details.

To mark the occasion Renewable Energy Jobs is offering all employers and recruiters around the world the opportunity to post wind energy jobs  free of charge. To post your wind energy jobs please contact sam@renewableenergyjobs.com for more details.
