Our very special guest this month is Todd Myers, Vice President of Research at Washington Policy Center. He is a voice of reason in countering the climate change hysteria, a best-selling author, and an all-around great guy. His book “Eco-Fads: How the Rise of Trendy Environmentalism Is Harming the Environment” documented how our environmental policies are driven by a desire to look good rather than to help the environment. His new book, “Time to Think Small: How Nimble Environmental Technologies Can Solve the Planet’s Biggest Problems“, outlines how small technologies are empowering people to protect threatened wildlife species, and make a real difference in protecting the environment.

With more than two decades in environmental policy, Todd’s experience includes work on a range of environmental issues, including climate policy, forest health, old-growth forests, and salmon recovery. A former member of the executive team at the Washington State Department of Natural Resources, he is a member of the Puget Sound Salmon Recovery Council.

His writing has appeared in the Wall Street JournalNational ReviewSeattle Times, and USA Today, and he has appeared on numerous news networks including CNBC, Fox News, BBC, and CNN. He served as vice president of the Northwest Association of Biomedical Research and received their Distinguished Service Award in 2018 for his support of bioscience. He has also served as president of the Prescription Drug Assistance Foundation, a nonprofit providing medicines to low-income patients.

Todd holds a bachelor’s degree in politics from Whitman College and a master’s degree in Russian/International Studies from the Jackson School of International Studies at the University of Washington.
