The White House recently recognized the Sonoma County Climate Resilience Team as it launched its Partnership for Resilience and Preparedness (PREP). Pepperwood Foundation president Lisa Micheli joined officials including Sonoma County Water Agency directors Efren Carrillo and James Gore to participate in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy’s event to launch the PREP initiative during the United Nations Climate Week.
Pepperwood and the Resilience Team played a key role in the early development of the PREP beta platform. PREP combines government data and design capacity with the local expertise of private and philanthropic sectors to develop data-driven planning and resilience tools for communities in the face of climate change.
Lisa Micheli spoke about her involvement in the Terrestrial Biodiversity Climate Change Collaborative (TBC3), and her passion for conservation in her Beyond the Lab interview.
