February 1-5, 2010 is Clean Energy Week

A coalition of 100 national organizations, including the Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI), has declared February 1-5, 2010 as Clean Energy Week with over 15 events scheduled throughout Washington, D.C. and the nation. Clean Energy Week activities will emphasize the shared concept that climate solutions, renewable energy and energy efficiency policies are essential engines of job creation and economic growth.

The week kicks off with a press conference at 9:30 a.m. EST on February 1, featuring nationally recognized clean energy thought leaders promoting clean energy policy as basis for solid economic development for the nation and future generations. The news conference will be webcast live in streaming video with an opportunity for questions for those who are not in the Washington, D.C., area or who cannot attend in person. Preregistration for webcast is required and is now available at www.visualwebcaster.com/CleanEnergy .
