A Blooming Writing Niche for “Green Technical Writers”
A Subniche
There are so many new writing niches sprouting every day. As a technical writer you may want to keep an eye on these developments. If you don’t, you might very well be leaving money on the table.
“Green Jobs” is one such blooming niche.
GHG (Green House Gases) is a green sub-niche that we should also mention.
If you are a writer with a good scientific background and an interest in environmental issues and global warming, you might consider specializing in GHG since the need for technical communicators in that sector is increasing.
In your next job search, you may also include such GHG positions and other offerings in the alternative energy and environmental protection sectors which include the sub-specialty of “carbon trading” as well.
