Episode description

What steps can the Biden administration take to strengthen the institutional capacity of the Bureau of Land Management to better address its conservation and climate change goals? This question was addressed in a lively online discussion hosted by PEER (Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility). Panelists discussed the results of a recent employee survey, trends in land management planning, problems in BLM’s management culture, and questions from the webinar participants. This discussion was held on February 24, 2021.

Panelists included:

Moderator: Rebecca Leber of Mother Jones

Chandra Rosenthal, Director of Rocky Mountain PEER

Laurel Williams, Officer for U.S. Public Lands and Rivers Conservation at the Pew Charitable Trusts

Richard Spotts, former Planning and Environmental Coordinator at the BLM Arizona Strip District Office
