Green Jobs for Freelancers & Telecommuters 7/14/09

Atrion International, Inc. is looking for two Regulatory Services (M)SDS Authors/Chemists. I had to think about whether this qualified as a "Green Gig", but in the end decided to list it because I am a firm believer that knowledge is power. Those qualified for the gig will be very familiar with material safety data sheets (MSDSs), but if you have never heard of the term, these documents are an important means of conveying information about what chemicals a product consists of. More importantly, they provide precise info about the environmental and health risks associated with these chemicals. Back in my science teaching days I always included a unit on reading and interpreting MSDSs because ultimately as a worker and/or consumer you have the right to know what you are coming in contact with. You can read more in my science activity, "Investigate Household Product Safety" written for Education.com.

Okay, and now for the rest of the listings:

Website Copywriting - for a florist (hey flowers are green!), pay not stated

Online Brand Evangelist and Blogger - Part-time, pay not stated

Business Advice Bloggers - Vegan Mainstream, $10 per week for the following: - 1 Blog Post: 400 words - 2 Linkedin Discussion Topics: 100 Words - 3 Facebook Post: 25 words (Don't go out and spend all that money in one place.)

Sr. Graphic Designer - KOR Water, part-time to start, pay not stated, double-check if telecommuting if you apply

Program Analyst/Project Manager - Energy Enterprise Solutions, pay not stated

Two Green Gigs for Writers - July 9, 2009

I hope you will take a moment and read my article, "5 Tools to Simplify and Customize Your Job Search". In this article I share some of my top-secret tricks for decreasing the time it takes to search job listings. Okay, maybe they're not top secret, but these tools have been invaluable in my search for jobs for myself and for those I list on Green Gigs. Feel free to recommend any job search tools you have found helpful in the comments!

Just two listings today, there are a couple others out there I chose not to list for various reasons, but the two listed below look promising. We're heading into that great wilderness known as family camping, so I'll catch you after the weekend. Rock on green friends.

PlanetGreen.com (Treehugger's sister site) is looking for a part-time freelance writer. The gig calls for 5-15 (500-750 words each) articles per week. The ideal candidate will have SEO knowledge, social media experience, have a "big" personality, and of course knowledge of environmental issues. Visit Treehugger for application instructions (there are specific questions to answer - be sure to answer them in your application!).

This one is a writer's market accepting queries that came to my attention via Freelance Writing Jobs. Mother Jones Magazine (both web and print) is accepting queries from freelance writers on various topics including environmental topics. Read their query details carefully, they are looking for "hard-hitting" news pieces and "thought-provoking" opinion articles appropriate for both web (1,500 words) and print (5,000 words). They are more likely to purchase articles with the "timeliness" for print and web, not web only.
