<br/><br/> While numerous studies have highlighted the unequal contributions of individuals to the climate crisis, the question of ecological inequalities in the professional sphere remains a blind spot in contemporary sociology. Based on an ethnographic study of a food waste collection and composting company, this article analyses the ‘ecological condition’ of the different professional categories involved – managers and executives on the one hand, and operators on the other. The results show that the greening of production activities reproduces and reinforces rather than challenges ecological inequalities. While managers and executives derive symbolic benefits from their professional reconversion in the name of ecology, operators remain in a subordinate position, directly exposed to the ecological contradictions of the company.
