?? Many people are looking for climate jobs these days (which is objectively awesome!). But if every climate-passionate person gets a “climate job,” then how will we transform our existing practices and organizations? ?? Check out my new Insights piece for Project Drawdown, where I show you that the climate job you’ve been dreaming of is perhaps in the job you already have.

Today is International Day of the Girl. This year’s theme, ‘Girls’ vision for the future,’ emphasizes the urgent action needed and the relentless hope driven by girls’ voices. Today’s generation of girls faces the harsh realities of global crises - climate, conflict, and inequality among them. But Project Dandelion and Project Drawdown know that educating women and girls isn’t just a necessity—it’s a critical climate solution for a livable world. When girls thrive, communities flourish and the earth heals. Help amplify their voices and create a future that champions gender equality, human rights, and climate justice. To learn more, read Project Dandelion's article on girls' rights as a climate issue, available on the Project Dandelion website: https://lnkd.in/ecXSCR5g Dig even deeper by visiting Project Drawdown's Educating Girls Solutions page and exploring more climate solutions: https://lnkd.in/gKPihZ9C #projectdrawdown #projectdandelion #actonclimate #educategirls

“Any big problem I've faced is best solved by a diversity of opinions and approaches and lived and shared experiences. I think that's one of the things that's so unique about Project Drawdown,” - Elizabeth Bagley, Managing Director at Project Drawdown. “It's that weaving together of everyone making their job a climate job, bringing climate change solutions into all of our jobs that will get us to the space that we need to be in to stop climate change.” Go deeper into Project Drawdown and our work with Elizabeth Bagley and The Might Arrow Foundation. From researching climate solutions to sharing stories of underrepresented climate heroes implementing those solutions to engaging with employees to take climate action at work. https://lnkd.in/ebZ_tzTH

Have you noticed?? In recent years, the number of climate-focused roles, such as sustainability consultants and ESG analysts, has increased dramatically, however many job seekers still experience frustration as they find their skills don’t align with the unrealistic expectations of employers. Companies are looking for "sustainability unicorns" ?? with a wide array of skills, while what they really need are "sustainability workhorses" who can effectively integrate climate action and passion into various roles throughout the company. ? Effective climate action requires contributions from ALL departments, not just overburdened sustainability teams! Employees can leverage existing positions to promote climate action, potentially leading to greater impact than simply seeking new roles within climate-focused organizations. Of course, there are many good reasons to leave a job and we don’t suggest that climate job seekers stay at a place they no longer feel comfortable. But if you are happy with your employer and see an opportunity to do more, there are 3 steps you can take to elevate climate action in your work!
