Jordan Lane Gilmore's background in the energy industry and expertise in water technology development are part of a lifetime commitment to environmental and economic sustainability.
At the nexus of water and energy (and agriculture) are opportunities for growth of new enterprises. As the complexity of problems arise, so do the number of solutions.
This is with the recognition that practically all things are connected and that for every action there is an equal reaction, somewhere. As we grow more and more disconnected from supply chains, Mr. Gilmore hopes to remind himself and others that there are communities, even remote villages, that will feel the impacts of our consumption, our waste, etc.
Jordan Lane Gilmore coordinates and hosts forums and other events on the sustainability of businesses and the business benefits of environmental sustainability.
The Alliance for Business Leadership (formerly PBLN), for example, partnered with Ceres and the NECEC to bring together CEOs, entrepreneurs and investors along with top city, state and national policy makers for peer-to-peer discussions across sectors and the public-private divide to initiate and deepen collaborations focused on Sustainable Strategies, Investments, Practices, Products & Policies.
(Mr. Gilmore was the lead at the Alliance for Business Leadership designing and coordinating this conference.)
