Beyond Oil: Powering the Future

Description

Transportation consumes 70 percent of the oil used in our country. But as worldwide demand for oil soars and supplies tighten, how will we keep transportation moving? Emerging resource management approaches and conversion technologies will contribute to an increasingly diversified and “greener” energy future. This public lecture, delivered by the University of Washington Bioenergy IGERT Director Dan Schwartz and Weyerheauser Corporation CTO and Vice President for Research Miles Drake, was presented October 30, 2008.
