UC Davis Policy Institute for Energy, Environment, and the Economy reposted this
Conservation Strategy Group and the UC Davis Policy Institute for Energy, Environment, and the Economy co-hosted the inaugural California Biomass Workshop on January 31st. Over 200 attendees converged on Sacramento for a deep dive into the key challenges and opportunities to deliver a sustainable bioeconomy in California. We revisit the motivation for the conference and summarize the main takeaways from the day in our latest blog post. We are grateful to our keynote speakers Secretary Wade Crowfoot and Assembly Majority Leader Cecilia Aguiar-Curry, and our sponsors, without which the event would not have been possible: World Resources Institute, The Nature Conservancy, Sierra Business Council, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, North Coast Resource Partnership, Berkeley Forests, Inter-Tribal Council of California, The Watershed Center, Environmental Defense Fund, California Department of Conservation, IBank California, Sierra Institute for Community and Environment, and Project 2030.
