Summary
Getting what you pay for: Tracking Ecosystem Services in the Northwest
Bobby Cochran
Executive Director, Willamette Partnership
If you stopped and asked Mother Nature how she would spend billions of dollars, she may come up with a different answer than our current pattern of spending for conservation and environmental compliance.
Bobby Cochran will discuss efforts of the Willamette Partnership to change the way we invest in ecosystem services around the Northwest—from improving water quality in the Willamette and Klamath Rivers to protecting habitat in sagebrush country.
