Ed's Clean Energy & Sustainability Jobs List July 5, 2026

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 65 jobs and internships in the full version of the newsletter this week. This week I heard from 6 people who found new jobs!

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. 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: 

Dave Eggers: ‘Once you have a machine think and write for you, you’re cooked as a species’. (Sophie McBain, The Guardian). He can think of nothing worse than “the idea of us willingly, without any overlord telling us so, saying ‘I think my voice would be better expressed by an unthinking machine who has plagiarised all of the world’s authors and has come up with this terrible soup of bad writing.’”

Five Americans die every hour from toxic vehicle emissions, study finds (Dharna Noor, The Guardian)

"You're paying the bills, buddy." Princeton, BP, and a sad but extremely revealing chapter in the climate fight (Bill McKibben, The Crucial Years)

Environmental (in)justice articles of the week:

A New Mexico Town Is Running Dry. An Immigration Detention Center Is Its Biggest Water Customer. (Martha Pskowski, Inside Climate News). The climate crisis and the project of white supremacy in the U.S. are absolutely connected. 

Energy Solutions has many jobs open in solar program management and IT, as well as efficiency and business development -  https://energy-solution.com/careers/. Positions in CA, MA, IL, OR, NY, and remote. 

Advanced Energy United is hiring for many energy policy and regulatory positions - https://advancedenergyunited.org/about/careers/. Positions on the east coast/ northeast U.S, and remote.
