In August I covered the Plug-In 2009 Conference in Long Beach for Creative Greenius and provided exclusive photos and commentary.
On the final night of the conference, August 13, a public night was held featuring a forum with Bill Nye the Science Guy, Chelsea Sexton and “Who Killed the Electric Car” Director, Chris Paine. In this excerpt from the complete video provided by Plug-In America on YouTube, I ask the panel about the sense of urgency I felt at the 2008 conference but found lacking here in 2009:
Joe, good question. Urgency is the big issue… but so much is going on below the surface. The insurance industry gets it, and is completely on board – they are just not talking about it.
Urgency is disruptive. Big business knows there is much to recoup if people are kept uninformed.
Thanks for all that you do.
