SUMMARY:2012 Alternative Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo
DESCRIPTION:2012 Alternative Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo\nMay 15-17 in Long Beach\, California \nACT Expo is North America’s largest alternative fuel and\nadvanced vehicle technologies event \nWith\nsoaring gas prices and mobile transportation sources being a major source of air pollution in Southern California\, now is the time to plan and invest\nin an alternatively-fueled future. \nThe\n2012 Alternative Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo is North America’s\nlargest convergence of stakeholders committed to air quality improvement by reducing emissions from\nmobile sources\, representing an array of clean vehicle technologies for various\napplications. Esteemed event partners include the\nU.S. Department of Energy and its Clean Cities Program and the U.S.\nEnvironmental Protection Agency. In\naddition\, the UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation is an ACT Expo Event Supporter\,\nwhich reinforces the integral role that California\nplays in clean vehicle technology advancements. \nThe three-day event will include keynote speakers\, plenary\nand breakout sessions\, alternative fuel\ntraining\, networking events\, technical tours and a\nride-and-drive event. Set to attract thousands of alternative fuel\nstakeholders\, this year’s ACT Expo will feature the following notable speakers\nin addition to many others advocating for California air quality initiatives\nand clean vehicle technologies: \nBarry Wallerstein\, Executive Director\, South Coast Air Quality\nManagement District Judith Mitchell\, Board Member\, South Coast Air Quality Management\nDistrict Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa\, City of Los Angeles Mayor Bob Foster\, City of Long Beach Wesley K. Clark\,\nRetired Army General\, Former Supreme Allied Commander Europe\, Co-Chairman\,\nGrowth Energy\, and Member\, Clinton Global Initiative’s Energy and Climate\nChange Advisory Board \nFor a current listing of speakers\nand agenda programming\, please view the ACT Expo 2012 Agenda.\nThe discussions that take place at ACT Expo 2012 will result in real projects\nand enduring air quality progress in the months and years ahead. Join the UCLA Luskin Center for\nInnovation at the ACT Expo in Long Beach this May! \nFor more information about the ACT Expo\, visit www.actexpo.com\, call\n(888) 993-0302 or email info@actexpo.com.

SUMMARY:A World Predominately Powered by Solar and Wind Energy? A Green Family Lecture Featuring Walter Kohn\, Nobel Laureate in Chemistry
DESCRIPTION:RSVP: www.ipam.ucla.edu/programs/kohnABSTRACT:It is widely recognized that the fossil fuels\, oil and natural gas\, which currently provide almost 60% of the world’s energy consumption\, will be largely exhausted in a few decades. At the same time world population will have  increased by an estimated 30 to 40 percent by mid-century.To avoid a catastrophic energy shortage by mid-century\, these fuels must be replaced by  ecologically acceptable and sustainable alternatives. Solar and wind power appear to me the most promising candidates. Although\, at the present time they constitute only ~ 2 percent of the global energy consumption\, their production  has recently been rising by a spectacular 30 to 40% per year\, or a factor 15 per decade and 225 in 20 years.This arithmetic suggests that the entire deficit stemming from the impending exhaustion of oil and gas might be compensated in about 10 to 20 years by continuing aggressive commitment to solar and wind energy. Walter Kohn’s lecture will examine this speculation. “I find that it provides useful guidelines for the second half of the century and beyond. At the same time\, I find a very serious energy deficit during the one to two decades of transition from the present (oil-gas)-era to the (sol-wind)-era\, which will require additional measures.”\nSPEAKER BIOGRAPHY:\nKohn has made major contributions to the physics of semiconductors\, superconductivity\, surface physics and catalysis.  He was the founding director of the Institute of         Theoretical Physics at the University of California in Santa Barbara\, which is one of the leading research centers in physics.  He has received numerous awards including the Niels  Bohr/Unesco Gold Medal\, the United States National Medal of Science and the Richard Prange Prize.  His role in creating Density Functional Theory\, the most widely used theory of the electronic structure of matter\, earned him the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1998.  In recent years\, he was an active member of the U.S. government’s Basic Energy Science Advisory Committee and a consultant with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.  In 2005 he produced a documentary on solar power entitled “The Power of the Sun.”  Kohn currently works on Macular Degeneration\, renewable energies and global warming.   \nOriginally from Austria\, Walter Kahn studied mathematics and physics at the University of Toronto. He then completed his Ph.D. in nuclear physics and a posdoctoral fellowship at Harvard University followed by posdoctoral work at the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen.
