Dear Sir or Madam,

I am on the search committee for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position
in Environmental Policy, and one of the subject areas we have included is
research on "population and environment", including demography. Would you
mind either forwarding this job ad to Ph.D. students, postdocs, fellows, and
others who might find this job interesting, or posting it on any information
bulletin boards of listserves you may have there? I have included it below
and attached it as a Word file for your convenience.

I greatly appreciate your time!

Best,

Audrey
