𝐀 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐥𝐲 𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐂𝐄𝐎 of a multi-billion $ firm but one whose activities are not exactly eco-friendly (say, a mining company)
𝐀 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐭 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐨𝐫 𝐎𝐱𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐲 to teach sustainability and environment. Good but not great pay, but valuable & high impact research & academic work
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐟 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐏𝐂𝐂 – the organization that is responsible for research and recommendations on climate change. Very prestigious, pay is excellent though not very high, and also, there might a huge amount of “political” work and endless meetings
