Denis Hayes Coming to Denver to Discuss Renewable Energy!

World-renowned Sustainability Advocate Denis Hayes will appear in Denver on July 14, 2002, to discuss "A Marshall Plan for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency."

Denis Hayes is currently President of the Bullitt Foundation, a $100-million environmental philanthropy group. He is most famous, however, for being Co-Founder of the original Earth Day in 1970, and a former Director of the Solar Energy Research Institute (SERI - now the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, NREL).
