The Economist and Enviance Present: The Carbon Economy: New Opportunities for Green Business

We’re very proud to sponsor the upcoming Economist event: The Carbon Economy: New Opportunities for Green Business. The event will be in Washington D.C. from November 17-18.

Timed with the publication of a special report in The Economist, The Carbon Economy Summit will examine how the political environment has changed since Kyoto and how committed regions and industries are to a sustainable carbon strategy.  Some speakers include:

· Jason Grumet, Founder and President, Bipartisan Policy Center

· James Rogers, President and Chief Executive Officer , Duke Energy

· Eileen Claussen, President, Pew Center on Global Climate Change

· Matt Kistler, SVP Sustainability, Wal-Mart

· Larry Goldenhersh, CEO, Enviance

The Economist has put together a great video that distills some very interesting and impactful statistics driving the need for a sustainable carbon strategy. You can check out that video on the event’s microsite.
