What entry-level positions in this field might an undergraduate college student consider?
My involvement with the American Conservation Coalition has been a bit different from how most people get involved with the group. It's really helped me play a larger part in my path toward working in the climate space.
With that said, I want to give a quick plug for my role. I'm a community ambassador, which is a great position for someone just starting off, even as an undergrad.
The ACC's Ambassador Program is a great way to open up your network, spread actionable climate solutions, and earn a little money on the side. It's a really good opportunity for someone who's interested, perhaps a bit outgoing, and wants to expand their horizons.
More information can be found on acc.eco. Feel free to message me on LinkedIn with any questions about it; I'm happy to talk more about the program.
