Ruben Alvarez, Managing Partner, was recently named to the Western Resource Advocates (WRA) Board of Directors. WRA is a Boulder, Colorado based non-profit conservation organization dedicated to protecting the West’s land, air, and water. The organization uses law, science and economics to craft innovative solutions to the most pressing conservation issues in the region. Since 1989, Western Resource Advocates has worked to ensure that future generations will have wildlands, clean air and flowing rivers in the iconic landscape of the West. WRA’s expert staff works throughout seven states (AZ, CO, MT, NV, NM, UT, and WY) to implement solutions within three core conservation programs: clean energy, healthy rivers and western lands. If you’ve ever rafted the Colorado River, hiked in Utah’s Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, spotted windmills or an array of solar panels out of the corner of your eye, watched a sage-grouse dance, or even sipped a glass of water, you’ve experienced WRA’s work first hand.
