Protecting biodiversity matters for the sustainability transition, but nothing yet seems to be able to halt the rate of biodiversity loss. The promotion of green jobs fuels questionable ideas, among which that there are green vs non-green jobs, and that the latter can be progressively replaced by green jobs. The option of developing jobs that could act to offset environmental damage is also attractive. Based on a social-ecological approach and the “strong sustainability” paradigm, the paper develops and tests a three-dimensional framework to highlight the complex and multifaceted relationship between employment growth and biodiversity enhancement. Three case studies are investigated using field expertise: slope revegetation, soil bioengineering and guided nature tours. The framework includes direct impacts of jobs on biodiversity, indirect impacts on biodiversity and ecological feedback on employment growth with two types of insights. First, it serves a reflexive analysis on the way these jobs, supposedly green, support and respond to biodiversity enhancement. Second, it helps tailor policy instruments adapted to each ideal-type of biodiversity-employment relationship towards a low biodiversity impacting economy. It highlights the various possible actions – from regulations to communication instruments – along with the types of biodiversity-employment relationships they address the best.

保护生物多样性对于可持续性转型很重要，但似乎还没有什么能够阻止生物多样性丧失的速度。绿色工作的推广助长了有问题的想法，其中有绿色工作与非绿色工作之分，后者可以逐渐被绿色工作取代。开发可以抵消环境破坏的工作的选择也很有吸引力。基于社会生态方法和“强可持续性”范式，本文开发并测试了一个三维框架，以突出就业增长与生物多样性增强之间复杂且多方面的关系。使用现场专业知识调查了三个案例研究：斜坡重新植被、土壤生物工程和自然导览。该框架包括工作对生物多样性的直接影响，对生物多样性的间接影响和对就业增长的生态反馈有两种类型的见解。首先，它对这些工作（据称是绿色的）支持和响应生物多样性增强的方式进行了反思性分析。其次，它有助于针对生物多样性影响较低的经济制定适合每种理想类型的生物多样性就业关系的政策工具。它强调了各种可能的行动——从法规到沟通工具——以及它们最能解决的生物多样性-就业关系类型。它有助于针对生物多样性影响较低的经济制定适合每种理想类型的生物多样性就业关系的政策工具。它强调了各种可能的行动——从法规到沟通工具——以及它们最能解决的生物多样性-就业关系类型。它有助于针对生物多样性影响较低的经济制定适合每种理想类型的生物多样性就业关系的政策工具。它强调了各种可能的行动——从法规到沟通工具——以及它们最能解决的生物多样性-就业关系类型。
