Coffee Break: How Nature Supports Southern Arizona’s Economy
May 16, 2025People from all over the world come to southern Arizona to experience the outdoors, recreate, and just be among the area’s scenic landscapes and wildlife. But how much is that worth, and what are the costs if it’s lost? Join SIA for our next virtual Coffee Break. We’ll be joined by Borderlands Restoration Network board member Chuck Klingenstein, who will share results from the first Nature-Based Restorative Economy study in Santa Cruz County, commissioned by the community and conducted by the University of Arizona.
