Jim Evanoff will explain the very unique challenges of “going green” in the world’s first national park. Yellowstone NP has successfully implemented a myriad of sustainability initiatives that have been a model for the surrounding region.

Jim will describe how the park effectively instituted sound environmental stewardship practices while hosting over three million visitors annually. The challenges are unique in that all the environmental programs are managed within the last intact ecosystem left in North America.
