Impactfully No. 49: Greener gases

It's hard to solve a problem you don't know about, much less understand. When we talk about social impact, we're often talking about some of the most complex problems around – imagine not knowing where to start!

That's where our featured company this week, Project Canary, comes in. They monitor greenhouse gas emissions in real time to help energy and utility companies reduce their impact on the environment.

You are probably familiar with carbon credits, where companies pay to offset their carbon emissions. Carbon credits have a somewhat dubious reputation because companies don't reduce their emissions by purchasing carbon credits, and the companies providing carbon credits don't always meet their obligations. Project Canary helps with this as well by monitoring carbon capture efforts, helping bring accountability to the industry.

Looking for more than just technology jobs this week? Check out the full list below:


Project Canary uses a network of sensors to track greenhouse emissions in energy infrastructure and monitor carbon capture. If you love dogs as much as the environment, you're in luck: they have a dog-friendly office environment.
