Amory
Lovins Energy
Amory Lovins of the Rocky Mountain Institute USA will be in
Auckland in
November to outline the enormous opportunities for business
and NZ
generally to increase our economic viability and enhance our
lifestyles by
capturing emerging innovations in the areas of energy, transport
and design.
His vision is particularly relevant to Auckland in 2002 as the
city
grapples with creating a sustainable transport system, and New
Zealand as a
whole as the country's electricity use continues to expand when
little new
hydro capacity is available, gas supplies are uncertain and
the
environmental impact of all energy use is increasingly a matter
for concern.
While he is here Lovins will be working with businesses and
government
officials on energy, transport and design paths that exist to
create a
sustainable future for New Zealand.
