Looking for a junior economist to help fashion climate policy in California

Dear NBER Colleagues,

The University of California is looking to hire a postdoc or otherwise
junior economist to spend two years at the UC, most of which would be in
Sacramento working to improve the economics dimensions of California's
climate change legislation (working with the Chairman of the Air
Resource Board). But the job is specifically to be split with the state
government and the University of California. There there are
significant opportunities to further academic research as well as an
extraordinary opportunity to put a mark on pathbreaking climate
legislation. This is a great opportunity for someone with strong
economics credentials with a desire for a significant policy dimension.
The UC connection allows the candidate to stay academically current.

Feel free to nominate anyone (just let me know) or pass on this ad.

Thanks.
