Panel Discussion with 2012 Raoul Wallenberg Medalist and Environmental Activist, Maria Gunnoe.
Join us as we dig deeper into coal -- one of the main causes of air and water pollution and global warming -- and learn how we can generate our electricity from cleaner, safer and healthier sources.
2012 Raoul Wallenberg Medal recipient Maria Gunnoe will be joined by:
- Dr. Jeremy Richardson, UCS Kendall Science Fellow in Clean Energy Innovation
- Dr. Stuart Batterman, Professor of Environmental Health Sciences at the University of Michigan
- Moderator Dr. Knute Nadelhoffer, Director of the Biological Station
Together, these four speakers represent an extraordinary depth and breadth of expertise on the effects of mining and burning coal, and how we can turn to cleaner and more humane sources of energy.
