Coastal Waters

Redefining Conservation

Join us to learn about the state of our coastal waters and ecosystems and how we can protect them. For over 40 years, Glenn Page has been working on creating pathways to place-based transformation of our coasts/oceans/watersheds that integrate numerous social and ecological issues. His advanced degrees are in interdisciplinary marine science and evaluation and has been working at the interface of science, policy and practice. As restoration ecologist by training, he “grew up” designing and building natural systems (i.e. dunes, rivers, wetlands and forests), focusing on ecosystem function, equivalency and evaluation. Currently, he is the President/CEO of SustainaMetrix, and founder of COBALT which is a bioregional initiative about “Navigating in the Anthropocene” as Glenn leads a team of interdisciplinary experts who brings innovation, Blue Marble Evaluation and systems thinking to complex, messy, cross-scale, wicked challenges of our time.

Redefining Conservation is written, edited, and produced by the staff and volunteers of Sierra Club Maine, including Nyalat Biliew, Matthew Cannon, Nasreen Sheikh-Yousef, Anna Siegal, Philip Mathieu, Grace Deng, Minot Weld. It was recorded at WMPG in Portland, ME. Our theme music was composed by Nathan Kroms Davis.
