Mark Tercek of The Nature Conservancy to Speak at The Sconset Chapel
I hope you’ll join me on Sunday, August 5th at 7:30 p.m. when Mark Tercek, president and CEO of The Nature Conservancy, makes a visit to Nantucket to speak at The Sconset Chapel as part of their Siasconset Chapel Sunday summer lecture and concert series.. Mr. Tercek will reflect on conservation in the 21st Century, and what it will take to protect nature in a rapidly changing world.
This former managing director of Goldman Sachs Group Inc. spent more than two decades on Wall Street before joining The Nature Conservancy. Now, with the help of his board and the input of the Conservancy’s 600 scientists, he wants to remake the face of the American and global environmental movements.
Admission is free. I’ll be there–hope to see you there, too!
