  • Resumen

  • It’s difficult to take a glance at the news and not be inundated with stories about climate change, environmental disasters, and the legal controversies that surround anything having to do with the environment. The push and pull of policy makers and lobbyists and courts grab the headlines and are seemingly constant source of discussion, but often overlooked is the role of the people responsible for implementing any policy that might be presented.

    Environmental managers are the boots on the ground in local communities. An environmental manager plays a crucial role in an organization's efforts to reduce its negative impact on the environment, maintain regulatory compliance, and avoid unnecessary environmental liabilities. They are responsible for implementing policies and advocating for change at the intersection of humans and the environment, and their work is essential in tackling environmental problems and communicating with people across the globe to find solutions. But those skills don’t develop in a vacuum. They have to be learned, and in our ever-changing, often-contentious world, education about how to become a competent environmental manager has never been more important.

    We’re joined today by Clinical Associate Professor Emeritus Marc Lame, who spent three decades as a faculty member at the O’Neill School, including teaching courses in environmental management. He’s also the co-author, along with Richard Marcantonio, of Environmental Management: Concepts and Practical skills. The book is a contemporary textbook and manual for aspiring or new environmental managers that provides the theory and practical examples needed to understand current environmental issues and trends. It focuses on environmental management through the lens of protecting public health and protecting the environment.
