Livestock Methane Reduction Fellowship - PAID

Description

The Livestock Methane Reduction Fellowship is open to undergraduate and graduate students at Stanford University. Interns will investigate available information on the cost of installing, maintaining and operating a manure lagoon cover with biogas collection as well as a cover on the digestate storage structure. Captured biogas can provide energy for on-farm use. The digestate cover will reduce ammonia emissions and associated public health risks. The economic analysis will include the cost versus revenue from on-farm energy and sale of GHG credits for avoided methane emissions. The intern will report to a lead senior scientist and work closely with other members on the Livestock Methane, Climate Smart Agriculture, and +Business teams. This internship is hybrid out of an EDF office in Austin, TX, Boulder, CO, Boston, MA, New York, NY, Raleigh, NC, San Francisco, CA, or Washington D.C. Intern supervisor is in the Triangle region of North Carolina and many team members are in New York City.
