Environmental Defense Fund remote jobs and company guide

We are the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF), a global nonprofit organization that has been at the forefront of tackling climate change since our inception in 1967. Founded by a group of scientists and a lawyer on Long Island, New York, we initially focused on the campaign to save the osprey from the toxic pesticide DDT. Through our advocacy and the application of scientific evidence, we successfully helped get DDT banned in the United States. Over the years, our mission has evolved, yet our commitment to creating bold environmental solutions remains the same. Today, we are recognized as one of the world’s leading environmental organizations, dedicated to cutting climate pollution and strengthening the vibrancy and resilience of the natural world.

Our efforts include fostering a clean energy transition, advocating for sustainable food systems, and pushing for policy changes that prioritize public health and ecological integrity. With more than 3.5 million members, supporters, and activists globally, we harness the collective power of communities to drive lasting and meaningful change. Our team comprises over 1,000 experts from various fields including scientists, economists, policy experts, and legal professionals who work collaboratively to develop innovative solutions that address the urgent environmental challenges we face. Our approach is grounded in scientific research and economic sustainability, ensuring that we can create impactful, equitable solutions for all. Together, we strive to build a vital Earth for everyone.
