Greening the Rhode Island Economy

The panelists were full of ideas and information as to how to create green jobs and develop a green economy for Rhode Island. It will take a little while to post everything, and it's just as well ~ gives us time to digest what they said, let alone figure out what to do next.

I've begun posting the panelists remarks with those of Dr. Joseph Ilaqua, Professor of Economics at Bryant University, the first panelist. I also started with him because he made a point of saying he was NOT a green economist, yet he clearly was very supportive of the theme of the conference ~ to create green jobs NOW.

I'll be adding notes on the rest of the panelists, as well as Mayor Cicilline's remarks, Greg Gerritt's welcome, and the moderator, Connie McGreavy's, comments in the next week or so. ~ SK
