March comes in like a lion and also is 'Sustainability Month' at Solana Beach, Calif.
This month is Sustainability Month in Solana Beach. The Kick-off event is an environmental forum (and surfboard raffle) for youth, students, and environmental professionals to discuss career opportunities and the future of community sustainability. Panelists include Lesa Heeber-Mayor of Solana Beach, Len Hering - retired Admiral, VP of Business Services at USD and leader of the USD sustainability program, along with teachers, and environmental scientists.
"The City and Clean and Green Team has once again partnered to develop relevant and timely events promoting the continued implementation of environmental sustainability programs throughout the community. The kick-off event will be an environmental forum which will include organizations from all over the County and feature a moderated discussion between active youth members and environmental professionals.
"The forum discussion will focus on environmental sustainability efforts and potential career opportunities. This forum will also include a raffle, with the grand prize being a brand new Firewire surfboard.
