#2Hi HN!
Most of us want to do more in the battle against climate change - it’s tough when your work life is unrelated. Right now, if you want to find a job that helps the planet, there’s no clear way to go about that. You could look for environmentally focused companies individually and keep checking their site to see if they are hiring. But that’s tedious and it’s easy to miss new postings. Conventional job boards don’t have a good way of filtering for this. A couple of environmental jobs boards exist, but they have low post volume and are dispersed geographically.
https://enviro.work is the place to come find green jobs in one spot. Think of it like a search engine for all Earth-friendly jobs out there. We aggregate eco-positive jobs from different sources and link you back to the source.
We wanted to help empower purposeful individuals to maximize their potential for the planet. Enviro.Work is linked with the community at https://collective.energy, where you can find inspiration, feedback, and an audience for your eco projects. Turn climate ideas into plans into reality - then build your team with Enviro.Work.
I'd love to know what you think and hear your helpful feedback.
Thanks for caring! Eric (Enviro.Work maker)

#4Now more than ever is the time do something about climate change, this is an awesome contribution. The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the second best time is now.

#7Great Idea.
Bug Report: if I search for "Software" and then go to page two, the url does not include the search-term, which leads to a "ValueError at /search/"
That debug/error page shows a traceback and many server settings, which you might not want to share in a production environment.

#8Just as an FYI: https://enviro.work/search/?page=2
I clicked on the search with nothing in the search box and then hit the link for page two. You probably want to switch Django debug off and fix the error page.
That said, it looks really cool. It's a great minimalist design that gets right to the point. It loads instantly since you haven't loaded it with crap. It's really a pleasure to click around a site that just loads content without an amount of JS that makes everything slow.

#9While it’s a good idea, what determines if a job “benefits the environment”?
A lot of jobs in the list - particularly any startup jobs - are at best unproven in their effect on anything and at worst are a drain on funding resources and have worse negative externalities to the world than being productive in a job that’s not nominally “about” the environment, as well as the risk you’ll invest years of labor under the assumption the company has a mission to improve the environment only to see it pivot when the business realities crash the party.

#10Can't go to next page and the search function doesn't work. Great mission!
