Former CIA Director James Woolsey Argues Energy Consumption Now A National Security Issue

Woolsey diagnoses what he terms as ‘malevolant’ and ‘malignant’ problems with American energy consumption and also prescribes the necessary solutions. (February 2009)

James Woolsey, former director of the CIA, might seem like an anomalous figure to speak on the importance of a well-built energy grid, but in the following keynote address, delivered at the Art Center Clean Energy and Design Summit held this month in Pasadena and excerpted here by MIR, Woolsey presents a strong message on the domestic and international security issues at stake in the way the United States currently consumes energy and clearly describes the benefits that a new energy paradigm could bring the world.

We at ABL Inc. were pleased recently to announce major changes to our suite of newsletters. Starting in July, we have merged The Planning Report and the Metro Investment Report. In April, we were pleased to launch VerdeXchange News, a new publication that covers innovations in green technology and green policy.

In the future, an expanded version of The Planning Report will include an MIR insert, which will continue our coverage of Southern California's ongoing infrastructure investments. VerdeXchange News will also absorb aspects of MIR's subject matter.

All archive and online subscriptions for MIR will remain active until the original subscription expires, but we will no longer handle new subscriptions through Metro Investment Report.

Please visit our websites at http://www.planningreport.com/tpr/ and http://verdexchange.org/ to see more details on subscribing to our current package of newsletters.
