Durham, NC – Monday, September 22, 2008: Author Thomas Friedman discussed his new book, Hot, Flat & Crowded: Why We Need A Green Revolution. In talk, Friedman illustrated how rapid growth in developing economies is changing our environment, and how U.S. reliance on oil and carbon based energy has become a security and economic liability. Friedman believes that while government has an important role to play in providing the right incentives, our clean energy solutions lie with American entrepreneurs.
