Jade Woods

Louisiana CCS Campaigner

Jade Woods (she/her) is the Louisiana-based CCS Campaigner in the Fossil Economy team, based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. She serves as a point person for CIEL’s goal to prevent carbon capture and storage (CCS) buildout in the Gulf South region. Her work includes coordinating regional and national strategies to resist CCS development, supplying frontline partners with the resources and support required to further their work, and supporting the creation of safe and just clean energy alternatives. She is thrilled to return to her home state of Louisiana to work on such pressing climate justice issues.

Prior to joining CIEL, Jade was involved with climate justice organizing in college. As a core organizer with Fossil Fuel Divest Harvard, a student-led environmental justice group, Jade served as the Facilitator of Outreach and Coalition Building, as well as a coordinator of the campaign’s internal education projects, connecting the campaign with an array of new coalition partners and connecting the group’s work to racial justice efforts.

Jade earned an A.B. in Government with honors from Harvard College in 2022.
