PANEL DISCUSSION: "DO WE NEED A 'MANHATTAN/APOLLO PROJECT" TO SOLVE THE
ENERGY/CLIMATE PROBLEM?" OCT 30, 7-9PM, EATON HUMANITIES 150
Addressing climate change will require dramatic reductions in
anthropogenic carbon emissions. Will greater use of today's energy
technologies take us to climate stabilization, or do we need a
large-scale investment in new energy research and development on the
order of the Manhattan Project that developed the atomic bomb in WWII
and the Apollo Project that sent a man to the moon? Panelists include
Rad Byerly, Craig Cox, Pete Geddes, Chuck Kutscher, and Gregory Nemet.
