'The Future of Energy: Where have we been & where are we going?'

Mr. David Hughes has spent a lifetime studying the supply side of Canada's energy question at NRCan and the Canadian Geological Survey. Quite literally no one in the world knows more about this subject than he and only a handful know as much. When such a man tells us that conservation not generation offers us by far our best chance at a comfortable future it would be best that we all stop to listen.

On September 11 David Hughes will be giving a talk in Council Chamber that has made him justly famous in energy and sustainability circles throughout North America. Mr. Hughes will speak to the issue of Energy Security regionally, nationally and globally and to the geological data which supports his call for the absolute necessity for the most rapid transition possible from fossil fuels to conservation and renewables. This call is in line with the call being made by those scientists, activists and policy makers concerned with Global Warming.

It is our sincerest hope that we will see you on this date and I can promise you that this evening will be among the richest information sessions of the year and relevant for even the most informed on the towering twin challenges of our time: Energy and Sustainability.
