WPCNR JOBS & OPPS. From The Village of Dobbs Ferry. December 3, 2008:
The Village of Dobbs Ferry http://www.dobbsferry.com/ (Westchester) is looking to identify an intern to assist with the Village’s Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory for ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability . Dobbs Ferry recently joined ICLEI and needs to both design and complete its emissions inventory in order to establish its emissions baseline.
The scope of the project would depend on the skills and experience of the intern – ideally we would like to identify someone with the ability to help design the inventory process and scope rather than simply gather and input information. We seek someone who enjoys collaborating with others but who is a self-starter. The intern would have a designated work space in Dobbs Ferry’s Village Hall and would report to the Chairperson of the Mayor’s Task Force on Energy and the Environment. This volunteer citizen task force includes among its members experts in environmental design, community outreach, and sustainable development.
This unpaid position would begin in January and affords the intern the opportunity to develop expertise with ICLEI’s state-of-the-art Clean Air and Climate Protection Software (CACPS). The intern will have the opportunity to interface with people in nearby municipalities who are also beginning the process of conducting greenhouse gas emissions inventories.
If interested, please contact Nina Orville, Chair of the Mayor’s Task Force on Energy and the Environment at ninaorville@gmail.com with information regarding your availability and qualifications.
