Sierra Business Council Offers Action Plan
In 1994 Lucy Blake, former director of the CA League of Conservation Voters, founded the Sierra Business Council for which she recently received $500,000 as a MacArthur Fellow.
The ingenuity of The Council lies in an approach to conservation that moves beyond the growth vs. no growth debate--successfully merging environmental and busniss concerns. Lucy shares with us the strategies and projects that are making the Council a model for managed growth organizations across the State.
