Crushing oil prices, melting ice caps, the intense media focus on air quality in Beijing during the recent Olympics are but a few reminders of the urgency, scale, and scope of the global warming problem. Green energy has been widely perceived as the key to saving our future. The success of this undertaking, however, requires not only close cooperation across countries but also active involvement/innovation from companies and individuals around the globe.
NACSA cordially invites you to join us in celebrating our 2008 Annual Conference. Reflecting the scope of the issue, our distinguished speakers come from around the world (US, China, India, Taiwan, and South America) and with diverse backgrounds (policy makers, utilities, entrepreneurs, billion-dollar enterprises, and universities).
