Tweeting the National Clean Energy Summit 2.0
I was in Las Vegas last week for the National Clean Energy Summit 2.0 (pictured at the Growth Energy booth to the right). I Tweeted a lot during the event and thought I'd share them with you here in case you missed it. Osha Gray Davidson, who tweeted prolifically at the event, quoted Bill Clinton at the event: "we are still piddling around with this [climate change]. Environmental Capital posted on the natural gas love fest that took place at the summit. Anyway, here are my Twitter posts, in chronological order:- oil is back over $70 per barrel as we kick off the National Clean Energy Summit 2.0

Social Media does really offer us great tools to help in pressuring our governments in taking responsible actions before the summit in Copenhagen. We need to focus our energies and get as many people on board as possible. Twitter is a good medium, let us raise our voices.
