Presidential Forum on Renewable Energy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Presidential Forum on Renewable Energy was created to ensure that renewable energy, sustainability, and conservation are top issues in the 2008 Presidential election. It will bring together 2008 Presidential Candidates to generate discussion and foster innovation.
[edit] Presidential Candidate Forum
The Presidential Forum on Renewable Energy will be sponsoring a presidential candidate forum on the afternoon of Saturday, November 17 at the Wadsworth Theater in Los Angeles. Hillary Clinton and John Edwards have already confirmed their participation, and we continue to work on lining up additional candidates to round out the event.
The Presidential Forum on Renewable Energy joined forces with leading environmental organizations to hold a single joint forum on global warming and renewable energy. Our partner organizations in hosting the event include the Natural Resources Defense Council, the League of Conservation Voters, and the Center for American Progress.
[edit] Nationwide Student Essay Contest
The Presidential Forum on Renewable Energy is also sponsoring a nationwide college student essay contest asking students to submit a Renewable Energy Plan for America. By engaging students, we encourage them to incorporate an awareness of energy conservation into their everyday lives. A professional grading company along with board members of the Presidential Forum on Renewable Energy will be evaluating the essays and choosing three first place winners. The Presidential Forum on Renewable Energy will award a $10,000 educational prize to each of these three renewable energy scholars.
