November 2011 Meeting

Everyday sustainability. How getting your hands dirty can make a big difference!

Evan Marks

Guest Speaker: Evan Marks, Executive Director, The Ecology Center

Topic: Everyday sustainability. How getting your hands-dirty can make a big difference!

Speaker Biography: Ever since the native Californian joined the Surfrider Foundation back in high school, Evan Marks' life-long career as an environmentalist was already underway. Through this participation, Marks was convinced that people had the ability to directly impact the environment by taking matters into their own hands.

He continued his advocacy while attending the University of California, Santa Cruz where he studied Agroecology - the study of sustainable agriculture - with the goal of transforming modern agriculture through integrated organic systems management. Having worked extensively in California and Hawaii and internationally in Costa Rica, Peru, Mexico, Ghana and Nigeria, Marks acquired personal hands-on experience in the fields of ecological design and sustainable agriculture.

In 2008, Marks was given the opportunity to bring environmental education and awareness to Southern California with the development of The Ecology Center. Working to transform the facility as the regional hub for sustainability and green living, Marks and volunteers of The Ecology Center are actively recruiting members in hopes of promoting eco-consciousness across San Juan Capistrano and its neighboring communities. The effects of the programs of this center have the potential to mold the future of Orange County.

Come meet others interested in going green at SBLC's monthly meeting. Open to anyone interested in going green!

Share with business owners, executives, and other regional leaders what you do that is eco-friendly. Even if you do not do anything "Green" and just want to learn; you are welcome to join us.
