Nobel Peace Prize Winner to Give Keynote Speech for All-Energy Canada Conference

The All-Energy Canada conference organizers have announced that Dr. Woodrow (Woody) W. Clark II will be the keynote speaker on April 9, 2014 in Toronto. All-Energy Canada is modeled after the U.K.’s largest annual renewable energy and energy efficiency event held in Aberdeen, Scotland.

Dr. Clark was one of the contributing scientists to the United Nations
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change . This organization was awarded the
Nobel Peace Prize in December 2007 along with Al Gore and his film An
Inconvenient Truth. Dr. Clark was the first research director for the U.N.
Framework Convention on Climate Change which established the economic and
technical basis for “environmentally sound energy technologies to be
commercialized in developing nations.”

He was the manager of technology commercialization at Lawrence Livermore
National Laboratory in the 1990s. In 1999, he became a visiting professor at
Aalborg University in Denmark, where he was a Fulbright Fellow in the early
1990s when he was asked in late 2000 by California Governor Gray Davis to be
his special advisor on renewable energy, emerging technologies, and finance.

Dr. Clark is the author of eight books and more than 50 peer-reviewed articles
focused on the economics and politics of global sustainable communities. His
latest book, Global Sustainable Communities Handbook, will be released before his conference appearance.

In addition to Dr. Clarke’s appearance, the two-day conference will feature
renewable-energy-sector speakers from around the world. A free-to-attend trade
show will feature Canadian and overseas exhibitors in the green energy and green
technology industry.
