"Under Margaret's leadership, the Wildlife Habitat Council helped General Motors streamline our conservation efforts across our global facilities, putting a strong framework in place to create measurable environmental results, as well as business value. In this book, she gives everyone the tools to create beautiful and sustainable corporate lands, offer opportunities for employee engagement, and support the communities where we live and work. Dane Parker, Vice President of Sustainable Workplaces, General Motors "Our economy and society depend on a healthy, natural world. This book tells a powerful story about how critical the business community, with its vast land holdings, is to solving the dual crises of biodiversity loss and rampant climate change. O'Gorman then shows us how to build a strategic program of conservation that works for business and the planet. This well-written and enjoyable book is an important read for those who want to leverage business to build a thriving world. Andrew Winston, advisor to multinationals and author of "Green to Gold" and "The Big Pivot" "Again and again, business is called on to be part of the solution to environmental, climate, and community problems. Margaret O'Gorman presents a practical approach to mainstream nature into industry, and in so doing, bring benefit to communities and address climate concerns. Mary Robinson, former president of Ireland; Chair, Mary Robinson Foundation–Climate Justice; Chair, The Elders "Margaret O'Gorman's masterful book is an encouraging revelation: a wonderfully written, thoughtful analysis and compilation of the little-heralded world of corporate effort at better environmental behavior. Complete with thoughtful commentary and recommendations, it should be required reading for corporate leadership and the environmental leaders who work with them. Thomas E. Lovejoy, University Professor of Environmental Science and Policy, George Mason University.
