style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>The environmental debate around
carbon has witnessed a dramatic turn from cynicism to proactive involvement.
The accumulation of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere is one of the most
pressing environmental issues of the day. The challenge is to address near- and
long-term concerns in mitigating GHG or carbon emission while continuing to
provide affordable energy to meet the growing needs of the world. <br>
<br>
The petroleum industry has the responsibility to deliver energy to the world
while implementing technological innovations to reduce emissions. The greater
challenge in carbon mitigation, however, requires a broader partnership between
various stakeholders: the energy industry, organizations involved in
mitigation, regulatory agencies and other forces that deploy technological and
policy innovations. Changes in technological and policy innovations are
creating new opportunities for new markets, new products, first-mover
advantage, and strategic maneuvering. <br>
<br>
Such strategies and proactive approaches to climate change allow businesses to
translate the threat of climate change into opportunities and competitive
advantage through the development of preventive and adaptive solutions. This
lecture will highlight examples that support innovation and entrepreneurship as
powerful forces for positive environmental change.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
