Featured Speakers: Governor Ed Rendell (D - PA) Thomas Friedman, columnist, New York Times; author, Hot, Flat, and Crowded: Why We Need a Green Revolution -- and How It Can Renew America Carol Browner, Principal, The Albright Group LLC
Moderated by: Bracken Hendricks, Senior Fellow, Center for American Progress
At a time of fiscal belt tightening, when some would put environmental priorities on the back burner, there are many who believe that investing in a green economy now is the best way to achieve both short and long term economic solutions. A recent paper by the Center for American Progress and the University of Massachusetts Political Economy Research Institute, "Green Recovery: A Program to Create Good Jobs and Start Building a Low Carbon Economy," finds that to promote economic mobility, growth, job creation, and regain technological leadership in the global innovation marketplace, we must fundamentally change how we produce and consume energy in this country and transform our economy to a low-carbon model. Investing in clean energy and efficiency will enable the United States to regain technological leadership in the global innovation marketplace, grow our economy, reduce global warming emissions, and invest in national security.
Please join the Center for American Progress and three of the country's leading advocates for investments in a green economy for a discussion on how each step of an economic recovery package (stabilization, stimulus, recovery, and growth) can be greened, and explore both national and state perspectives on policy solutions towards transforming our economy to a low-carbon model.

socialist jumping on this important issue to get more to join the socialist push! Watch out america....socialism has happened. The dems pushed the bailout, now the banks have "no idea" what they did with the money AND they want more....And the government is in control. US Car companies may need the money but you can bet it's going to go to keeping those stincking unions, which drives the prices of american cars through the roof.
Can you make a video of just Friedman's last answer, about the idea of getting in the cloakroom? It's easier to distribute as it's a great sound byte.
