The Company Network team engages with the 50+ members of the Ceres Company Network to help them develop sustainable business strategies that address key challenges such as climate change, water scarcity and pollution, and human rights abuses throughout the value chain. Ceres’ advocacy is rooted in the expectations for corporate sustainability outlined in The 21st Century Corporation: The Ceres Roadmap for Sustainability . These expectations address four critical dimensions of a company’s approach to sustainability: governance, stakeholder engagement, disclosure, and performance as it relates to company operations, supply chains and products. The Company Network seeks an intern who will support our corporate engagement work by:
Using publicly available information to research and analyze the sustainability performance of individual companies and sectors through the lens of the Ceres Roadmap expectations;

TRANSPORTATION INTERN (IN BOSTON OFFICE)
The Ceres Transportation Team intern will work directly with both the Senior Director of Transportation and the Senior Manager of Clean Vehicles at Ceres.
A clean and efficient transportation system is critical to a strong U.S. economy, with benefits including saving consumers and businesses money as well as reducing our dependence on oil. Transportation is also a significant contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) and other criteria air pollutant emissions. In fact, in 2016, the transportation sector surpassed the electric power sector as the largest emitter of GHG emissions in the United States, accounting for 28% of GHG emissions – more emissions than any other nation's entire economy, with the exception of China.
To reduce harmful emissions coming out of the U.S. transportation sector and improve air quality and human health, we must focus on three components: vehicles, fuels and infrastructure. In 2019, the Ceres Transportation Program's primary focus is to:
Advocate for clean transportation policies, including clean vehicle and fuels policies,
Accelerate corporate uptake of electric vehicles (EVs) and associated EV infrastructure; and
Encourage market growth of EVs and infrastructure.
Fall 2019 internship projects will include advocating for Low Carbon Fuel Standards, supporting strong passenger vehicle and truck fuel economy standards, and promoting low- to zero-emission vehicles. In addition, this position will support the development and maintenance of EV market tracking systems and assist with preparation of materials for corporate engagements on transportation electrification. This intern will be asked to perform research on various transportation issues, draft supporting resources and perform some administrative tasks. Please refer to the Ceres Transportation Initiative page for additional information. Graduate students preferred, but all will be considered.
EVALUATION & IMPACT INTERN (IN BOSTON OFFICE)
The Innovation and Evaluation Team works to scale the impact of Ceres work by measuring and evaluating progress towards achieving programmatic objectives, as well as supporting the incubation and vetting of new project ideas. This includes working to strengthen the planning, evaluation and asset management functions within the organization that need to be implemented to effectively achieve Ceres’ mission. The Ceres Innovation & Evaluation department would like to bring on an intern to help us work through a significant backlog of data entry from various teams, multi-year impact case studies, discrete innovation projects, and support the work of the Sustainable Capital Markets Accelerator as needs may arise. Specific tasks are outlined below:
Research and document Ceres impact related to Corporate and Investor sustainability commitments and actions:
Utilizing internal resources, including grant proposals, reports and press releases, research and compile multi-year data on corporate and investor actions on clean-energy, water, and capital markets.
Perform analysis on company actions, specifically related to Ceres engagement over a defined time horizon
Conduct research and fact-checking to contribute to the development and prioritization of targets for corporate and investor engagement in the coming year
Support the Vice President of Innovation and Evaluation on special projects relating to the Ceres Sustainable Capital Markets Accelerator, as needed
Assist with special projects on an ad-hoc basis, as needed
It is helpful for candidates to have skills in research, strong writing and verbal communication, confidence with spreadsheets (Excel or Google Sheets), time management, and familiarity with customer relations databases (such as Salesforce) helpful but not required.
STATE POLICY INTERN (IN BOSTON OFFICE)
The State Policy Team at Ceres works with companies through Business for Innovative Climate and Energy Policy (BICEP) and investors in our Investor Network on Climate Risk to advance climate and clean energy policies at the state level. This position will support the State Policy Team primarily through research and writing projects focused on:
key state climate, clean energy and transportation policies, as well as
the key actors and decision makers in our priority states.
Work will also include participation and note-taking in strategy meetings, legislative analysis, and other tasks, including data collection and organization. We are looking for candidates with strong organizational, research, and writing skills, an ability to work independently, and some familiarity with environmental and sustainability policies.
Preference for candidates who have experience with state policy, and experience related to climate change or energy, but all will be considered.
CLIMATE ACTION 100+ INTERN (IN SAN FRANCISCO OFFICE)
Climate Action 100+ is a global investor initiative to ensure the world’s largest corporate greenhouse gas emitters take necessary action on climate change. The companies include 100 ‘systemically important emitters’, accounting for two-thirds of annual global industrial emissions, alongside more than 60 others with significant opportunity to drive the clean energy transition. Ceres helps drive this initiative by supporting investors in collaborative shareholder engagements and improvements in their stewardship practices.
Working with members of Ceres' Investor Network team based in San Francisco, this intern will help advance our work by conducting research on climate risk in various sectors and collecting information on company and investor actions in order to curate an informational webinar series for CA100+ signatories. The role will also include some administrative support for the webinar series, finding dates, preparing presentations and some contact management.

Natural Resources Defense Council
New York, NY, USA
The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) is the nation's most effective environmental action organization. We use law, science and the support of 3.1 million members and online activists to protect the planet's wildlife and wild places and to ensure a safe and healthy environment for all living things. NRDC was founded in 1970 and our staff helped write some of America's bedrock environmental laws, including the Clean Water Act, and many of the implementing regulations; our water enforcement cases played a major role shaping current water policy throughout the country. Today, our staff of more than 500 lawyers, scientists, economists, policy and communications experts, and others, work out of offices in New York, Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Bozeman, Montana, and Beijing.
Position Summary
The planet is beset by two interrelated crises: climate change and ecosystem collapse. Experts have identified large-scale conservation and restoration of natural ecosystems as critical strategies to reduce CO2 emissions, deliver negative emissions and safeguard the world’s biodiversity. Accordingly, NRDC is prioritizing the conservation of wild, ecologically- and carbon-rich habitats, including calling on nations of the world to adopt an ambitious plan to help safeguard nature and life on Earth by protecting 30 percent of the world’s land and 30 percent of the world’s oceans by 2030 (“30 by 30”). NRDC is seeking a Climate Change and Ecosystem Ecology Science Fellow for a fulltime, two-year post-doctoral Fellowship. The Fellow will provide subject matter expertise and conduct multidisciplinary research and analysis on land-based carbon sequestration and ecosystem functioning within the context of climate change.
Specific topics and projects undertaken by the Fellow will include:
Reviewing and analyzing available scientific literature about Ecosystem Carbon Dioxide Removal (ECDR) approaches, with specific emphasis on how these strategies relate to the “30 by 30” biodiversity goal;
Identifying gaps in existing data that need to be considered prior to deployment of these ECDR strategies
Assessing the range and robustness of existing estimates of forest climate mitigation potential in United States and the temperate rain forests of Chile, the risks to these sinks and developing criteria for identifying the greatest opportunities for increasing these sinks;
Assessing the range of existing estimates for ecosystem-wide carbon in Canada’s Boreal Forest, where is this carbon located, the drivers that could lead to its release, and the range of estimates for potential carbon loss from various drivers;
Establishing reliable estimates for potential soil carbon sequestration in agricultural soil sinks in the United States, identifying factors that account for the range in existing estimates and creating criteria for the identification of geographic areas of opportunity for accelerating the adoption of climate-mitigating practices;
Analyzing carbon removal potential for these ECDR pathways including volumes needed to meet climate goals, costs, benefits and drawbacks, and barriers and opportunities;
Organizing and hosting a workshop of internal and external experts to discuss and seek feedback on the results of the analysis;
Developing a policy and implementation roadmap for NRDC to help speed deployment of ECDR in the identified regions, including short- and medium-term opportunities, in close collaboration with NRDC legal, policy, and science staff;
Identifying and assessing political and societal barriers to deployment.
The Climate Change and Ecosystem Ecology Science Fellow is supported by NRDC’s Science Center and its Science Fellows program, which is a key element of the Science Center’s mission to enhance NRDC’s scientific capabilities and provide resources and support for policy and advocacy work. The Science Fellows program provides young scientists interested in working in the science, policy and advocacy arena with professional experience and on-the-job training; it is an excellent opportunity to refine existing skills and build new ones, develop professionally, publish work, and gain important competencies.
The Fellow will be based in our San Francisco, CA office (preferred) or our Washington, D.C. or New York, NY offices.
Responsibilities
The Fellow’s core responsibilities will include:
Reviewing and assessing existing, peer-reviewed literature and datasets related to:
Forest ECDR in the United States, Canada’s Boreal Forest, and the temperate rain forests of Chile and
Agricultural soils in the United States;
Conducting a gap analysis of where additional data and information are needed and develop strategies for producing or obtaining it;
Drafting a report of analytical findings;
Developing and hosting an expert workshop to present and seek feedback on the findings and producing a report based on the input received at that workshop;
Creating a technical and policy roadmap for how NRDC can advance forestry- and agriculture-based ECDR in the U.S. (forestry and ag), Canada (forestry), and Latin America (forestry).
Qualifications
The following qualifications are required:
A doctoral degree in ecosystems ecology, forest carbon science, soil science, or a related field, and familiarity with natural climate solutions and associated literature. The ideal candidate would have already completed one post-doctoral position on these subjects. A candidate with a Master’s degree and relevant academic and/or work experience may also be considered.
Expertise in land-based carbon sequestration and ecosystem functioning and a desire to bring to bear that expertise on public policy.
Deep understanding of scientific methods and processes and ability to provide thorough assessments of current scientific research relevant to core job functions.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Comfort with public speaking.
Ability to work with various stakeholders, including other NGOs, government employees and officials, scientists, industry employees, and members of the community.
Excellent organizational and time management skills.
The following qualifications are desired:
Expertise in interpreting and analyzing carbon sequestration data.
Familiarity with data modeling, design, and interpretation.
Experience with environmental policy analysis or advocacy.
Media training and/or experience giving media interviews.
NRDC is committed to workplace diversity and inclusion. We are equal opportunity employers and do not discriminate in hiring or employment on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, gender identity and expression, marital status, sexual orientation, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by federal, state, or local law. We offer competitive salaries, excellent benefits, and a pleasant working environment. Salary is based on a nonprofit scale and commensurate with experience. Consistent with the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, we will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.

Society for Wilderness Stewardship
Rhinelander, Wisconsin and Lake City, Florida
Title: Wilderness Fellow
Reports To: SWS National Program Director
Classification: Hourly
Location: 2 Positions are available, located in the following: Rhinelander, Wisconsin and Lake City, Florida.
Duration: Wisconsin: September 16, 2019 – March 9, 2020; Florida: September 16, 2019 – June 19, 2020
Time: Full Time, Seasonal
Salary: $600 weekly stipend
Benefits: 1 earned personal day per month (vacation is not eligible to be cashed out at any time) and federal holidays; Forest Service housing provided or a monthly housing stipend will be provided.
Closing Date: August 23rd, 2019
Partners
The Society for Wilderness Stewardship (SWS) is a non-profit organization seeking to promote excellence in the professional practice of wilderness stewardship, science, and education to ensure the life-sustaining benefits of wilderness. In other words, we are a professional society working to set the standard for wilderness management.
The Aldo Leopold Wilderness Research Institute (Leopold) is dedicated to the development and dissemination of knowledge needed to improve management of wilderness, parks, and similarly protected areas. Leopold was established in 1993 under the Rocky Mountain Research Station and has been the wilderness research arm of federal agencies ever since. The Institute operates under an interagency agreement among the federal agencies that have wilderness management or research responsibility – the Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Forest Service, National Park Service, and the U.S. Geological Survey.
The U.S. Forest Service (USFS) was founded by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1905, and today oversees 445 wilderness areas, or 33% of the National Wilderness Preservation System. Inaugural Chief of the USFS, Gifford Pinchot, stated that the USFS existed to “provide the greatest amount of good for the greatest amount of people in the long run.”
Program Overview
The Wilderness Fellows Program is a collaborative of the three organizations above, and was created in order to complete Wilderness Character Baseline Assessments, thereby continuing important assessment work that has been underway since 2001, and fulfilling the USFS Wilderness Stewardship Performance (WSP) element “Wilderness Character Baseline”. The Wilderness Character Baseline requires that steps be made to determine a baseline and provide the foundation for evaluating trends in wilderness character. These trends indicate the outcome of management actions and success at ‘preserving wilderness character’ as directed by the Wilderness Act.
As stated in Keeping It Wild 2: An Updated Interagency Strategy to Monitor Trends in Wilderness Character Across the National Wilderness Preservation System (Landres et. al, 2015), “the results of wilderness character monitoring provide [agency staff who manage wilderness day-to-day, and regional and national staff who develop wilderness policy and assess its effectiveness] some of the key data they need to improve wilderness stewardship and wilderness policy.” The report goes on to say that, “Implementing this monitoring strategy does not guarantee the preservation of wilderness character, but it informs and improves wilderness stewardship, and ensures managers are accountable to the central mandate of the 1964 Wilderness act – to preserve wilderness character.”
In 2001, the USFS Wilderness Monitoring Committee developed the first national framework for Wilderness Character Monitoring (WCM). Progression was attained by the USFS in 2006 with WCM pilot testing occurring in every FS region, the publication of the Applying the Concept of Wilderness Character to National Forest Planning, Monitoring and Management in 2008, and the 2009 distribution of the Technical Guide for Monitoring Selected Conditions Related to Wilderness Character .
The USFS and Leopold now stand at the brink of publishing the second generation Technical Guide (expected June 2019), a tool that promises to advance WCM across the nation. Wilderness Fellows will apply the tools in the Technical Guide to carry out wilderness character baseline assessments. Fellows will complete base level work for numerous wilderness areas that will inform future targeted assessments.
Position Overview
The Wilderness Fellow Program is seeking qualified candidates to fill Wilderness Fellow positions. Fellows are based in locations around the country, with a significant amount of travel within their base region. Work is roughly 80% office based and 20% field based, and is performed at USFS offices to directly support the goals of a collaborative wilderness character monitoring initiative currently underway in the USFS.
Primary Wilderness Fellow Responsibilities
Attend one week training in Granby, Colorado (travel provided).
Work out of remote USFS locations, residing in USFS housing.
Coordinate meetings with USFS resource specialists and line officers to gather information regarding wilderness character.
Research, compile and analyze legislative and administrative historical data per wilderness area.
Travel to and into wilderness areas.
Compile and analyze data for selected monitoring indicators and complete components of a baseline assessment for wilderness character monitoring.
Implement inventory and monitoring strategies for tracking wilderness character.
Participate in weekly conference calls.
Set and meet benchmarks and deadlines for data collection, meetings, and draft and final reports.
Create a narrative report for each wilderness area worked in.
Key Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in a related field, Master’s degree preferred.
Educational background in Wilderness Management, Protected Area/Natural Resource Management, Recreation Resource Management, Conservation Social Science, Environmental Policy, Natural, Biological and/or Physical Science.
Deep interest in wilderness/resource management and the U.S. Forest Service.
Outstanding written and oral communication skills.
Research skill and attention to detail and organization.
Ability to work both independently and collaboratively on projects, high degree of initiative.
Understanding and ability to use GIS is a plus.
Results-oriented with the ability to set and follow realistic goals and objectives.
Flexibility to adapt when faced with changing needs and priorities.
Proficiency with Microsoft Office, comfort with technology.
Ability to travel to training and remote field locations (travel provided), and to relocate if necessary (assistance not provided).
To Apply: E-mail a resume, cover letter, a one-to-two page writing sample, and three professional or academic references to Heather MacSlarrow at: hiringmanager@wildernessstewardship.org
Essential Functions: Employee may be required to sit, stand, and lift objects up to 50 lbs. Employee may be required to travel and camp in the backcountry, and to drive or fly to remote project locations.
The Society for Wilderness Stewardship is an equal opportunity employer.
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, marital status, age, disability, veteran status, genetic information, or any other protected status.
