Hi all,

Some of you may be interested in or know someone who may be interested in
this job opportunity with Environmental Defense Fund:

https://www.edf.org/jobs/scientist-climate-innovation


Scientist, Climate Innovation

The Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) seeks a scientist to conduct
early-stage research on innovative, impact-focused approaches to
decarbonization and reducing climate warming.

As an early-stage incubator of scientific ideas and questions, the Climate
Innovation group investigates promising climate solutions and technologies
across sectors, from energy and industry to agriculture and natural
systems. The goal is to identify technologies and system changes that can
drive disproportionate climate impact, anticipate future challenges to
success, and conduct key scientific investigations to create positive
change. The scientist will identify high leverage scientific questions and
data needs in emerging areas of global relevance, generate plans to
investigate them, and follow through to drive meaningful impact. The scope
of past and current topics is broad, including electrical transmission,
carbon dioxide removal, industrial carbon capture safety, new sensor
design, and agricultural amendments. Methods usually involve identifying
and building teams of experts to collaboratively address the questions. *The
ultimate metric of success is science that results in a positive impact on
slowing climate change and its impacts.*
