Ed's Clean Energy & Sustainability Jobs List 10.12.25
2025, #38
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.
Thank you to everyone who responded to my survey! A couple of people commented on the Open Thread that I sent out on Wednesday. If you want to check it out or join in, you can do so here: https://edscleanenergysustainabilityjobs.com/open-thread-1-and-survey/. The page will say that you have to be a subscriber to comment, that just means you need to sign in, not pay.
Access to jobs that require less than five years experience or that are located outside of the U.S. are and will remain free. There are individual subscriptions ($7/month or $70/year) available as well as career center subscriptions ($300/year). 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.
