Florida loses leading conservationist

The Fueling Station has learned that one of Florida leading conservationists died this weekend.

Nick Bollman was at the forefront of climate policy in both Florida and California. He worked with Jim Murley at Florida Atlantic University’s Center for Urban and Environmental Solutions, and he was a huge part of the Florida climate change movement, working closely with lawmakers and scientists to craft policy solutions, all the way up to the Governor’s office.

Just last week he was busy working on a policy guide he put together suggesting adaptation strategies for coastal communities dealing with the impacts of climate change.  We are told he lost his life due to an accident at his home in Key West over the weekend.
