The environmental issues have been the focuses of the environmentalists and governments for decades around the world. The universities and colleges in Malaysia are encouraged to produce graduates who aware and sensitive to their surroundings especially to the engineering and technology courses because industrials –light or heavy - have been identified as the main contributors to the air and water pollutions. In the 10thMalaysian Plan report, the government has stated that it wants to create the environment for the unleashing economy growth. The government also intends to nurture, unleash and retain the top talent. This conceptual paper discusses on the appropriate actions to be taken by the engineering and technical educators in developing green talent that can perform as the ‘green-collar workers’ in the companies globally. These green-collar workers can adapt and innovate by creating new jobs, products and processes to unleash the economic growth. 2011-04-09T04:55:59Z 2011-04-09T04:55:59Z 2010-11-12 Working Paper http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/11530 en Proceedings of the International Conference on the Roles of the Humanities and Social Sciences in Engineering 2010 (ICoHSE 2010) Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) Centre for Communication Skills and Entrepreneurship
