Marin Community Foundation

Bruce Riordan is currently supporting the Marin Community Foundation by assessing needs and gaps for climate stakeholders in Marin County. The project has included interviews with 30+ climate leaders in the county, a half-day workshop to discuss key problems and solutions, and a “context scan” of key federal, state and regional climate initiatives.
