Hi there! Welcome to Ed’s Clean Energy & Sustainability Jobs List, where we know climate change is caused by burning fossil fuels such as gasoline, coal, oil, and fossil gas (“natural” gas), and that burning fossil gas in our homes makes us sick.
There are almost 100 jobs in today’s list, which means your email reader may cut this off. You can always view the newsletter on my website here: edscleanenergysustainabilityjobs.com/01-26-25/.
I’ve made changes to my subscription model, read about it here. Jobs that require less than five years experience remain free.
There are individual subscriptions available as well as career center subscriptions. College student? Please ask your career center to sign up for a paid subscription, especially if they pointed you here. Odds are they have not subscribed.
Want to support the jobs list, but can’t swing a subscription? I started an affiliate bookshop on Bookshop.org that will send me a small affiliate bonus if you purchase books using this link (https://bookshop.org/shop/EdsCleanJobs). I also included a selection of books that I’ve enjoyed that address climate change and climate solutions. You can also send me a one-time payment/tip using this link.
What I'm reading this week:
I’ve been reading Terrible Beauty by Auden Schendler and I’m really enjoying it. Auden is the Senior Vice President of Sustainability at Aspen Skiing Company and an outspoken advocate for real climate action in corporate sustainability. His first book, Getting Green Done inspired me on my climate job career path. Terrible Beauty speaks to the moment we are in now, and the need for business to step up and take action on climate, and to go beyond simple sustainability reporting. I’m only about half way through, but I’m really enjoying it. It is a very well written and readable book. Check it out.

As Trump Targets Biden’s Environmental Justice Initiatives, Activists Gear Up for Legal Fights (Kristoffer Tigue, Keerti Gopal, Marianne Lavelle, Inside Climate News)
