Dr. Madeleine K. Albright, Principal of the Albright Group, LLC and former United States Secretary of State |
|
As the world struggles to adjust to surging population, the rise of new political powers, and the possible socio-political implications of climate change, any sustainability policy that ignores politics looks increasingly like whistling in the dark. With her decades of political experience, Dr. Albright will examine the crucial issues in international relations that must underpin any truly global strategy to resolve the three-way tension between greenhouse gas reduction, energy security and energy cost. |
|
The Platts Lectures will be attended by hundreds of senior executives from across the globe representing all energy sectors and the financial community. Dr. Albright will be joined by additional speakers that will include globally renowned industry leaders and academics who excel in thought leadership and innovation. Additional speakers will be announced in the coming weeks. The 2008 Platts Lectures coincide with the 10th Anniversary of the annual Platts Global Energy Awards gala.
