  • The Federal News Radio Expert Voices panel focuses on making sustainability sustainable. In your opinion, why is this topic so relevant right now?
  • Most of my work is in support of the Defense Department, and from this perspective, sustainability is particularly relevant as a means of improving mission effectiveness while simultaneously achieving outcomes that improve environmental performance.  Sustainability provides a framework and set of practices that improve the management of built infrastructure, natural infrastructure, procurement processes, and acquisition processes to name a few and these, in turn, help move the Department beyond compliance with regulations toward improved readiness.
