<blockquote type="cite" cite>The need for sustainability will dominate
the next decades and characterize the generations that work toward it.
This is more than an energy problem. <br>
</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite><br></blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>Using an innovative panel format, the
Summit will challenge policymakers, engineers, business leaders,
academics, and environmental activists to think creatively about
shared problems to i<b>mplement integrated solutions and assess the
results</b>. Discussions will be centered around realistic case
studies and will focus on the decision-making process that you can use
to achieve measurable outcomes -- for example: inventing new products,
retrofitting old buildings to be LEED certified, or installing new
transportation infrastructure. The event will be moderated by
Sloan Professor Rick Locke and DUSP Professor Judith Layzer.<br>
