Two top U.S. environmental groups this week appointed top executives.
Greenwire reports that Greenpeace USA has named the veteran organizer Phil Radford to be its executive director. Mr. Radford has been with Greenpeace since 2003 and is credited with overseeing efforts that nearly doubled the organization’s annual budget and mobilized users of prominent online social networks.
The Boston Globe says that John B. Kassel will be the next president of the Conservation Law Foundation, an influential New England group. Mr. Kassel is a former head of the Vermont Agency of Natural Resources and a lawyer who advised nonprofit groups and businesses on developing renewable-energy projects.
