Position Announcement:	Project Analyst, CLF Ventures

CLF Ventures
In the mid-1990s, CLF recognized that society's environmental 
challenges could not be overcome through litigation and advocacy 
tools alone. To foster creative solutions that balance both 
environmental and economic considerations, CLF launched CLF Ventures 
in 1997.

Originally operating as an experiment that seized opportunities as 
they arose, CLF Ventures has evolved to become a well-defined and 
purposeful organization. We have developed a unique set of 
capabilities that, in combination with our environmental reputation, 
lend distinct value to our clients. CLF Ventures gives CLF the chance 
to say "YES" to ground-breaking, market-based efforts to protect the 
environment.
