New Carbon Economy Consortium Seeking Postdoc Applications

Purdue’s Center for the Environment is a founding member of the New Carbon Economy Consortium (NCEC).  The NCEC is requesting applications for Postdoctoral Fellows in the social sciences to work with Consortium institutions on topics related to the transition to an economy that sequesters more carbon than it emits.

The Consortium is building a knowledge enterprise that includes the scholarship needed to understand and facilitate the development of approaches that remove, store and use atmospheric carbon and explore the critical intersection between such advancements and the social sciences like economics, political science, sociology, human geography, with special attention to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion.

NCEC seeks applications from scholars across a broad spectrum of social science disciplines and perspectives, including perspectives on how CDR technologies can be scaled equitably and safely.

Applications are due January 25, 2021.
