Changing the Energy Landscape: From Fossil Fuels to a Lower-Carbon Future - CANCELLED

Modern life is impossible without energy. Heat, light, power and transport all depend on reliable energy sources that are economically and socially sustainable. Fossil fuels have been at the center of this energy landscape for more than two centuries. Transitioning from fossil fuels to a diverse energy portfolio, however, is an increasingly urgent national and global issue. The transition requires informed decisions about complex technical, economic and social issues. Gain an understanding of the dynamics of the changing energy landscape and the cost/benefits of diversifying power and transportation systems through this dynamic lecture, and educate yourself for informed public discussion and debate.
