Eve will be discussing biodiversity and climate change in Vermont – what is changing?  What is being done about it? What can we do? As a parent, Eve has observed her children’s anxiety about climate change and the loss of biodiversity, but from her vantage as head of The Nature Conservancy in Vermont, she sees signs of progress and hope. Don’t miss this opportunity for a thoughtful and optimistic discussion.

Eve Frankel is the State Director of The Nature Conservancy in Vermont. She first joined TNC in 2014 and has held positions as both Deputy Director and Director of Strategic Communications.

Eve has over twenty years of leadership experience in the renewable energy and non-profit arenas. As an immigrant to the U.S. in the 1980s, Eve grew up in urban centers on both sides of the Atlantic with little exposure to the outdoors until her 20s. It was then that she began a deep relationship with nature, growing her love and literacy for natural communities. Eve has leveraged this outsider’s perspective in various leadership roles to help build bridges between content and audiences, projects and funders, and teams and goals to strategically advance biodiversity protection and climate action.
