Imagine that, in the year 2040, the global population has grown to over 9 billion people and global living standards have increased and continue to rise.  Tied to that population growth and what may be the largest expansion of the middle class in history, there is more demand for homes, transportation, electricity, consumer goods, and the energy to power them all.  This seminar intends to offer perspective about the solutions that will be needed to address environmental challenges while continuing to meet people’s energy and product needs that support healthy, prosperous living in an ever-changing world.
