If you’re interested in the organic movement, maybe you should consider a career in the organic business.

The organic business consists of several major areas, all of them focused around organic farming and renewable resources. A few areas include organic food, organic wine, and organic clothing.

You might work with a company that manufactures one of these products, or products that cater toward organic farmers (such as natural pesticides). You might also work with a company whose mission is to ensure clean food and water for everyone.

You could market a product, do research in a lab, work in operations, design products, or get the product in the consumer’s hands, to name a few possibilities. Most of these jobs require a bachelor’s degree, so get to work.
