I have been interested on sustainability before 2000 (got education for sustainability certificate yada yada) and years later I became a dev. I looked for years for a remote work on sustainability but it was difficult. The pandemic opened the gate to remote work and Biden policies the momentum for investments. I'm currently working for Bractlet (we're hiring, you can find us in the current whoishiring thread) and before them I was working for CarbonCure (I think they are also hiring). Both great companies.
Real impact? I don't know as I'm obviously biased as my salary depends on that. Reducing concrete footprint (the most used construction material and with gigantic carbon footprint) sounds a good bet. Reducing building energy consumption is also a good bet. Other things that are interesting is working in lab meat (not sure it's a place for devs yet).
I'm happy with the switch and I don't see myself doing anything else with my working time until we solve this as species.
Where do you find them. YC has a climate startups (), LowerCarbonCapital has a jobs board, and you can always ctrl-f "climate" in the whoishiring thread. Tip, search for green VCs and check their portfolio one by one.
