For over 15 years, Marty has worked at the interface of climate science, sustainability and business action, building bipartisan partnerships with industry, governments and nonprofit groups to create practical solutions to the climate crisis. He brings a broad perspective to the issues having previously served at USEPA, the White House, Congress and several think tanks and environmental organizations.
