***And don’t miss Secretary Jewell’s talk!***
Secretary Sally Jewell, U.S. Department of the Interior, will deliver the Union Agency Lecture on Dec 18th, 12:30 P.M.-1:30 P.M.
Description: In nominating Jewell, President Obama said, “She is an expert on the energy and climate issues that are going to shape our future.  She is committed to building our nation-to-nation relationship with Indian Country.  She knows the link between conservation and good jobs.  She knows that there’s no contradiction between being good stewards of the land and our economic progress; that in fact, those two things need to go hand in hand.”
