Comments

Nancy Floyd asked me whether my description of Mike Eckhart as "unabashed" was positive or negative.

Positive. If you want to hear genuine, unbridled enthusiasm for renewables, or the insightful and unvarnished opinions of energy policy from a long-time industry insider, you should not miss this rare Seattle opportunity to hear Mike speak.

Mike has admirably turned ACORE into a leading influencer in the renewable energy space, and he started long before most people had heard of global warming.

Hi. This is really interesting post. Thank You! I have just subscribed to Your rss!
