The Tom Graff Fellowship is a full-time, one-year position focused on a project that is integral to one of EDF's key program areas - Oceans, Ecosystems, Climate or Health. The Fellow will have the opportunity to work closely with our staff on a significant project, develop core professional skills, understand our approach to environmental issues, and develop an understanding of environmental advocacy as a career path. Environmental Defense Fund (www.edf.org<http://www.edf.org/>) was founded in 1967 by a group of scientists concerned about the effects of DDT on humans, wildlife, and the environment. DDT was banned in the US as a result of our tactics - one of the classic achievements of the environmental movement. Other notable victories include developing market-based systems to cut pollution, convincing corporations of the economic benefits of environmental business practices, and helping private landowners restore more than 2 million acres of habitat for endangered species. Environmental Defense Fund's accomplishments have been based on the combined efforts of scientists, economists, and attorneys working for practical, economically sustainable solutions to environmental problems. With the support of over 700,000 members, we focus our efforts in four broad program areas: Oceans, Ecosystems, Climate and Health. Offices are located in New York, D.C., North Carolina, Texas, Colorado, Massac husetts, Arkansas and in San Francisco, Sacramento and Los Angeles, California.
