Mountainfilm’s 2010 Symposium on Biodiversity

It’s been a busy few weeks for me—most of it spent in Utah at BOSS working on pre-season preparations. For some reason, I’m not as inclined to write/blog while there—I suppose it’s a retreat of sorts (which is good). But I enjoyed our 6th Annual Slickrock Gathering and then had a great retreat with my staff.

I’m now in Telluride, Colorado, where I’ve spent the last 8 hours on stage as the Master of Ceremonies for the Mountainfilm Festival’s 2010 Symposium. It was an honor and a privilege to spend time with some truly interesting and engaging people: Terry Root, Mike Fay, Nicole Rosmarino, Joel Sartore, Rick Ridgeway, Greg Carr, Maya Lin, Louie Psyihoyos, Dave Foreman and Tom Lovejoy.

Each of the 10 speakers was given 20 minutes to speak in addition to 3 25-minute panels where we took questions from the audience (and I asked a few as moderator). It was so fascinating and educational. My gratitude to the people at Mountainfilm for creating such a worthwhile event before the weekend of films and for making this year’s Symposium so significant.

Now I get to relax and enjoy the weekend of films!

1. Hi Josh,
   Gosh you have been so busy it made me tired. I’m always glad when you make it back to Utah for some strange reason.
   Can you tell us some of the questions you asked of the panelists?

3. Hi Josh—I’m sure the break was a needed one (at BOSS) and I would love to hear more about the film festival.  Any particular underlying themes or important points you can share with us?

4. Some time ago, I needed to buy a good house for my business but I did not earn enough cash and could not order something. Thank God my mother proposed to try to take the loan from reliable bank. Hence, I did so and used to be happy with my sba loan.
