House Energy Independence and Global Warming Committee
The Business Opportunity in a Low-Carbon Energy Economy
As Congress turns its attention to passing an energy bill to begin the United States on a path towards a cleaner energy future, the Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming will host several CEOs who have seen the business opportunities in a low-carbon energy world.
Representatives from three leading business groups advocating for caps on the heat-trapping emissions that cause global warming will appear before Chairman Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.) and the Select Committee to discuss their companies’ work to reduce emissions and increase profits.
