Endorsements for Cascadia Scorecard

"Without measurement, we don't know where we are or how we're doing. Sightline Institute's Cascadia Scorecard gives us powerful measures reaching many aspects of our lives. It is invaluable." - Bill Bradbury, Oregon Secretary of State

"Sightline Institute's Cascadia Scorecard is a prime example of a pioneering approach, providing the critical analysis we need to evaluate our progress on some of our important issues."
- US Representative Earl Blumenauer of Portland, Oregon

"In a world of information overload, the Cascadia Scorecard provides a much-needed focus on the big picture. Sightline has sifted through hundreds of possibilities and identified seven indicators that capture fundamentally important components of the environment of the Northwest." - Gordon Orians, emeritus professor of biology, University of Washington and, chair of National Academy of Sciences committee on ecological indicators

Endorsers of the Cascadia Scorecard
