Not long ago I did a post about a webinar given by Marion Trieste of the Trieste Associates. This broadcast described Trieste's game plan for promoting a wind energy project in communities by creating what she called grassroots organization. Prior to Trieste's forming her own consulting company Ms. Trieste worked for Ace New York.
