As part of Georgetown University’s Social Impact Week, Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. will hold the 2010 Georgetown Energy & Cleantech Conference. The student led Energy and Clean Tech Club initiative brings together students and alumni “from across the many schools of Georgetown University interested in issues of energy (traditional and renewable sources), climate change, cleantech, and sustainability.”

2nd Green Revolution has decided to sponsor the event and will also be attending the conference on Saturday September 11th. The welcome message on the conference’s homepage is largely in line with our views:

Our society is at a major energy crossroads. Continuing with the same policies that subsidize fossil fuels forces us to rely on imported oil and dirty coal; alternatively, we must fundamentally change the sources and uses of energy. Our nation’s economic competitiveness and security will be determined by the energy choices we must make soon.

We are planning to blog live from the conference and hope to see some of you there.
