In this episode, we dive into regenerative development and design and Jeremy Madsen's journey as he joins Build It Green as Executive Director to advance the organization in a new strategic direction of regenerative neighborhood development and design grounded in inclusivity, community engagement, and collaboration.
Jeremy previously served 10 years as CEO of Greenbelt Alliance, a San Francisco Bay Area focused advocacy group focused on protecting the natural and agricultural lands that make the Bay Area special and promoting the right development in the right places. Under his leadership, Greenbelt Alliance became a recognized authority on sustainable and equitable urban and suburban development. More recently, Madsen was at the Energy Foundation where he focused on cultivating atypical advocates such as corporate leaders for climate protection and clean energy.
