His talk is entitled: “Sustainability – How can one word have so many meanings?”
As Giusti explains, “sustainability” is the buzz word of today and can be used to address a multitude of topics. Greg will provide his unique view of the concept and how it may apply to the workings of the Lake County Land Trust.
With 35 years of experience working in Northern California’s wildlands, Giusti has a wealth of knowledge and experience about the issues facing Lake County and California.
He has published more than 50 peer-reviewed scientific papers on a variety of topics related to forest and aquatic systems.
Giusti serves as chair of the Lake County Invasive Species Council and is a member of the Lake County Fish and Wildlife Advisory Committee. Greg and his wife, Kathy, live in Kelseyville and have two grown children.
