<div> <h3>Description</h3> <div> <div> Impact Analyst, Waste Sector About Carbon MapperCarbon Mapper is a non-profit organization based in Pasadena, CA with the mission to drive greenhouse gas emission reductions by making methane and carbon dioxide data accessible and actionable. We leverage remote sensing technology to detect, pinpoint, and quantify methane and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions at the scale of individual facilities. All of our methane and CO2 data is made publicly available for non-commercial use on our Carbon Mapper Data Portal to provide decisionmakers with the information they need to prioritize and take mitigation action.  Carbon Mapper also works with stakeholders and decision makers to fill data gaps, lead on cutting edge science, collaborate to drive reductions, and advance education and insights on emissions globally. To do this, we work with partners to leverage a constellation of satellites. Data from these satellites will offer the next major step in scaling up the organization's robust data portal featuring thousands of direct observations of global methane and CO2 super-emitters.  To learn more about Carbon Mapper, please visit us at https://carbonmapper.org.To view our data, please visit us at https://data.carbonmapper.org. About The RoleCarbon Mapper is seeking an Impact Analyst, Waste Sector, to help expand the use and understanding of Carbon Mapper’s methane data in support of meaningful emissions reductions. This role will support the Impact team through a blend of data and policy analysis, impact tracking, project management, and stakeholder engagement. The analyst will help to translate complex methane data into practical, actionable insights for governments, industry partners, and civil society organizations.
