The talk is titled: “Republicans, Democrats and Sustainability: Recovering Bipartisan Environmental Politics”, and there is <a href="https://bluejeans.com/playback/s/o9mgRLaDr2SVVbpPCMMmugKFR5CmEFtI5CsrevNwFFjE0tb8W1d7oDRUbgD0VL9z" class="">an on-line version here</a>. <o:p class=""></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">The talk can be a public lecture, a brown bag, or for a class, and there is no cost for the presentation.<o:p class=""></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">While on campus, I also typically give a career talk to junior/senior environmental studies classes: “How to Get a Job Saving the Planet: Sustainability Leadership Careers in NGO’s, Business and Policy”. The talk covers many of the topics <a href="http://online.liebertpub.com/doi/pdfplus/10.1089/SUS.2015.0001" class="">in this article.</a><o:p class=""></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Politics and Environment <a href="http://www.bard.edu/cep/politicsandenvironment/speakers/" class="">has a list of thirty additional speakers</a> also able to give a similar non-partisan talk on environmental politics, at no charge, in states across the country.
