Volunteer to be a Web Monitoring Analyst

EDGI is looking for volunteer web monitoring analysts 5-10 hrs/week. Analysts track and classify website changes flagged by our version tracking software. Each analyst is responsible for monitoring a set of web domains on a weekly cycle, which is important for ensuring timely response and coverage. If you’re interested, contact our Web Monitoring Program Coordinator at edgi.websitemonitoring@protonmail.com.

1. Our sample gives us 375,000 New York households, including 133,000 in New York City and 48,000 in Long Island.
2. To calculate these, we combined ACS data on daily commutes with the national average fuel efficiency of 22.5 MPG and an estimated $0.54/gallon increment on gasoline prices, an aggressively upper-bound figure just shy of that offered by the New York State Business Council, which assumed that all added costs would be passed along from distributors and sellers to consumers.
3. To estimate the carbon used in the consumption of electricity and natural gas, we use statewide averages for the carbon intensity of both these energy sources, potentially missing within-state variations. For each household in our samples, we start with ACS data on electrical and energy bills, project the carbon used, then apply the CCIA fee to that amount, thereby obtaining the additional energy costs associated with the CCIA at each level of income for each place
