Ed's Clean Energy & Sustainability Jobs List 05.31.26
2026, #19
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 64 jobs and internships in the full version of the newsletter this week.
Access to jobs that require less than five years experience or that are located outside of the U.S. are and will remain free. For jobs requiring more than five years experience, there are individual subscriptions ($7/month or $70/year) available. I also offer career center subscriptions ($300/year) which provides access for up to 10 users. 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.
Voting is the most important thing you can do to enact climate policy and drive change at scale. Primaries for the 2026 U.S. local, state and federal elections have already begun. Find information about how to register where you live here: https://www.vote.org/. If you want to do more, consider volunteering with the Environmental Voter Project.
What I'm reading this week:
Please Use AI (Shawn Smucker, The Courage to Use It). A meditation on how the sanitized, averaged out excretia of AI strips us of the pleasures and realness of humanity.
The household battery revolution that could change energy bills … and the world (Adam Morton and Petra Stock, The Guardian)
24/7 renewables could happen sooner than you think (Julian Spector, Canary Media)
Environmental (in)justice articles of the week:
A Youth-Led Campaign Claims a Win For Climate Justice (Bob Berwyn, Inside Climate News)
