OPPORTUNITIES FOR CLIMATE & HEALTH SCIENTISTS
Our mission includes supporting the creation and diffusion of new science-based solutions to climate and environmental change – especially to addressing life-threatening warming trends worldwide. A key driver of climate instability is the warming of the oceans, whose record temperatures have been connected by scientists to recent, devastating natural disasters.
CURRENT REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
We currently accept grant proposals for scientific fieldwork.
Priority will be given to proposals focusing on producing new scientific information with a clear and well-defined scientific question. Research areas we will consider include, but are not limited to:
-
Providing access to health care and education in underserved and remote communities
-
The impacts of environmental changes on ocean temperatures on the US West Coast
-
The impacts of environmental changes on the health of coastal communities of North and Central American coasts
-
Monitoring increases in pathogens in coastal waters in North and Central America
-
Energy efficiency in hot, humid, or extreme climates
-
Coastal and island heat resilience
-
Climate monitoring that informs energy policy or building design
