Eban Goodstein is the Director of the Bard Center for Environmental Policy and Executive Director of C2C and National Teach-In (a 2008 ITP Grant Partner). On November 18, 2010 he was  asked to participate in a press conference announcing a major new green initiative by General Motors.

Chevy’s $40 million project aims to reduce 8 million metric tons of carbon over the next few years through energy efficiency and renewable energy projects in communities across the country.

Excerpt from the video:
“To ensure a sustainable future, a lot is riding on American imagination and American creativity. We are the most innovative country on Earth, and when we put our minds to it, we can solve these problems. Chevy’s Volt is truly a game changer.

“Car companies can no longer just build cars. They need to think backwards to supply chains, sideways to complementary clean energy inputs, and above all, forwards to their customers and the future.”
