*31 January 2025* A US-based non-profit, likely called the "Arête Glacier Initiative" (AGI), is seeking an Executive Director to spearhead fundraising efforts and secure around $15 million to develop the field of "glacier interventions," a set of geoengineering techniques aimed at slowing down glacier melt and mitigating sea level rise caused by climate change. Key points about this initiative: Focus on glacier geoengineering: The non-profit is specifically interested in researching and developing technologies like surface albedo modification, ice shelf buttressing, and mooring curtains to slow glacier melt. Leadership role: The Executive Director will be the public face of the organization, responsible for fundraising, building partnerships, and overseeing research initiatives. Scientific expertise: The AGI is co-founded by prominent glaciologists from institutions like MIT and Dartmouth, who will likely serve as scientific advisors. Funding goal: The organization aims to raise approximately $15 million to support research, development, and advocacy efforts related to glacier interventions.
