主讲人简介：
Marilyn Brown is an endowed professor of energy policy in the School of Public Policy at Georgia Tech, where she directs the Climate and Energy Policy Lab. She is a national leader in the analysis and interpretation of scenarios for a sustainable energy future. Before coming to Georgia Tech in 2006, she managed the Efficiency, Renewables, and Electric Grid Program at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. In 2010 she joined the board of directors of the Tennessee Valley Authority, the nation’s largest public power provider, following President Obama’s nomination and US Senate approval.She has written two textbooks on climate and energy issues, and has authored more than 250 publications. Among her honors and awards, she is a co-recipient of the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize, for contributing to the report on Mitigation of Climate Change. Brown has served on six committees of the National Academies of Sciences, including the Committee on America’s Climate Choices and the Board of Energy and Environmental Systems. She co-founded the Southeast Energy Efficiency Alliance.
内容简介：
How can we energize industrialized economies and pull a billion people out of poverty without over-heating the planet? Transitioning away from carbon-intensive fossil fuels and using energy more efficiently are two promising approaches to a sustainable energy future. But fossil fuels dominate the official international and domestic energy forecasts. To diverge from these predictions, we need to reform policies from the global down to the local scale of governance. This talk will highlight some of the successes in the U.S. and globally that illustrate creative and promising approaches.
