Energy Costs, Energy Supply, Energy Policy-SOLD OUT!
Rising Energy Costs: The X Factor in Boulder's Economy
What is the Outlook for our Community and our Businesses?
The City of Boulder has very aggressive goals for the conservation of energy and the use of renewable energy sources. It may well be that we are entering an era in which Boulder City Government will be making policy for the community from the perspective of energy use.
Hear about the energy situation from someone who has spent his career in the energy business. Tom Petrie, Vice Chairman of Bank of America Merrill Lynch, a noted authority on the energy sector who is frequently quoted regarding energy policy will be discussing energy supply and price outlook, the role of alternative sources for energy and what a realistic energy policy looks like.
Gary Horton, Boulder Tomorrow Board Chairman: "This will be one of our most significant events this year. As you will see from his resume below, we are very fortunate to have Mr. Petrie joining us to examine this very timely and economically important issue." One man who understands the complexities behind the energy industry - and their impact on Americans - is Thomas A. Petrie, who predicted two years ago that $120-$150 oil would create enough economic shock to affect demand. If you'll remember, that's precisely what happened last summer.
