About us

Work On Climate is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization building the workforce needed to solve climate change equitably and justly.

With over 20,000 members, we are the world’s largest community for professionals seeking climate work. Our free service, led by volunteers, has helped over 2,000 high-caliber individuals find climate jobs and many more find co-founders, employees, investors, mentors, and customers. We foster collaboration, experimentation, and knowledge-sharing within the climate work ecosystem through our programs, partnerships, and positive, action-oriented community. Feel free to connect with us on LinkedIn, join our Slack community channels to meet like-minded peers, and visit our website for upcoming events. Let’s work together to build the climate workforce.

    Potential climate talent needs optimism that your solution is bold and achievable. ✅ In a recent survey, we found that people lose their sense of agency when they feel the problems are too systemic and insurmountable. 😰 48% believe political advocacy would have the most impact, but only 22% plan on putting the most effort toward this type of action.
