Clean Energy Project - Lecture Series

I have been supporting this project for more than 3 years now for various reasons, including clean energy sources for better living, less pollution and an ability to create a disruption in the world's energy markets that will take away the current economic and political imbalance that exists today.

If you have an interest in helping, please join my team at the World Community Grid.
