After Copenhagen: Understanding the Energy Trap for Policymakers
United Nations Headquarters
760 United Nations Plaza
New York, NY
Tuesday, February 2, 2010 from 1:00 to 2:45
Co-sponsored by the NGO Sustainability and the Mission of Slovakia to the United Nations
This presentation will discuss the macro trends of our economy, energy structure and environment, as they will affect the decisions we make as individuals and policy-makers. Touching on the outcomes of the Copenhagen Climate Summit, Dr. Chris Martenson will explore why and how a financial system dependent on infinite growth will continue to create disastrous friction with the resources and ecosystems of a finite planet. To enter the solution-space in confronting these timely issues, we will need to understand how these “Three E’s” are inextricably linked, and break apart the myths we tell ourselves as a society to build towards a future of sustainable prosperity.
Light refreshments to be served at 1:00PM; presentation will begin at 1:15PM.
This talk is FREE to attend. To receive UN clearance to attend the talk, we must have your name, email address and affiliation by Thursday, January 28th. We may suspend registration early if capacity is reached. Please email Megan Walsh with your RSVP soon!
