Clean Water Fund’s Hartford, Connecticut office is hiring a full-time community clean energy organizer to work for one year as part of a team of organizers and volunteers seeking to create fundamental change in how we use energy starting at the grassroots level.
With the state of the economy, concern over volatile energy prices, continued federal inaction on global warming, and disasters like the Gulf oil spill and nuclear plant failures in Japan, people are looking for energy solutions. Connecticut has been at the forefront of states leading the way on clean energy policies and this project provides an opportunity to create a national model for how to engage entire communities and their residents to make energy smart choices.
