As national economic policy and politics continues to fail our communities, real change must be forged by cities and counties working collaboratively to restore our economies to a sustainable state. This talk integrates practice and research in business, economics, and conservation to outline three critical components that must be managed to restore the Siskiyou economy to a productive, stable, and sustainable state: business diversity, regional energy, and domestic trade. Giordanengo (jor-da-nayn-go) presents a fresh perspective on the structure of an economy that balances economic, environmental, and social benefits while producing new business opportunities. The role of economic succession in stimulating productivity, an ecological explanation of the wealth gap, and the natural geography of a sustainable economy will be covered together with other key insights. More importantly, this talk presents a variety of policies from around the U.S. that are available to stimulate a strong and sustainable Siskiyou economy.
