Workshop #1


Linda Coady

Chief Sustainability Officer

Linda Coady is Chief Sustainability Officer for Enbridge, a leading North American energy delivery

and infrastructure company. Prior to joining Enbridge in 2013, she was Vice-President of

Sustainability for the Vancouver 2010 Olympics and Paralympic Games (VANOC) for 5 years. She is

also a former Vice-President of World Wildlife Fund Canada (WWF-Canada), and a former Vice-

President of Weyerhaeuser Canada. In 2015 Linda was a member of the Climate Advisory Panel to

the Government of Alberta.

As noted in an August 2015 article in Canadian Business, Ms. Coady was a junior Vice President for

MacMillian Bloedel (later acquired by Weyerhaeuser) in the mid 1990’s, and was thrust into an epic

battle over Calyoquot Sound on Vancouver Island. More than 800 protestors were arrested in the

summer of 1993. Improbably, she brokered a détente with environmental groups and First Nations –

one that would later become a template for later peace treaties and help end two decades of unrest in

“The War of the Woods.” To this day, Canada’s forest industry goes about its business largely

without incident or interference from environmental NGO’s.

Her work has been recognized with awards from Canadian Business for Social Responsibility (CBSR),

the YWCA, and the Globe Foundation on Business and Environment.

Ms. Coady has consulted both locally and globally on sustainable development issues in the forestry,

mining, energy, and shipping industry as well as in the conservation movement and the sport sector.

Sustainability Report – Built for Progress – which underscores the importance of sustainability at

FMC and focuses on our key priorities: People, Products and Responsibility.

After graduating from the College of Environmental Science and Forestry in Syracuse, NY in

1977 I immediately started working for FMC and have held several positions since that time in

research, development and the businesses. In the 1980’s I worked in the Biotechnology group

isolating natural product herbicides and insecticides from fungi. In the 1990’s I moved from

research into development where I was responsible for doing studies to support global product

registrations. In 2003 I joined our North America crop business as the manager of the

Registrations and Regulatory group and then in 2009 took the position as the Product

Stewardship Manager for FMC’s global Agricultural Solutions business ensuring that our

products are used safely and responsibly around the world.

I live outside of Philadelphia with my husband, Rick. We enjoy traveling, boating, skiing and

cooking (well, actually Rick enjoys cooking and I enjoy eating!). Our daughter, Jen, is married and

lives in northern Vermont where she works as a carpenter and has her own business making

furniture. Our son, Dan, is married, lives in Pennsylvania with his wife and son. Rick and I have

been married for 40 years and are going on a safari in Kenya and Tanzania this September to

Climate Change high level meetings and at the G-8 and G-20 on climate and environment issues. She is a

frequent speaker on the issues surrounding development and climate change.

As vice president, Sierra oversaw the World Development Reports on Climate Change (2010), Economic

Geography (2009), and Agriculture (2008). She was chair of the Consultative Group for International
