festival.
*Denotes Participants who are also Moderators
The nation that put a man on the moon can and will lead the world into the post-carbon age.
On our country's birthday weekend, ROTHBURY brings together the innovators, entrepreneurs, thought leaders, celebs, and rabble rousers who are bringing this future into focus. They'll share their strategies and successes, and offer practical ideas and inspiration. It's time to have fun, talk solutions, and start working towards a fossil-free America.
It's time for a New Independence Day.
The ROTHBURY Think Tank is an event within the event, offering various buzz sessions and roundtables between leading scientists, scholars, writers, progressive political and corporate leaders, youth leaders, entertainers, and...you.
The ROTHBURY community will huddle in intimate settings, engage in exciting discussions via closed circuit TV and radio, and powwow in informal gathering spaces throughout the weekend.
The Think Tank will address the topic of Finding Energy Independence. Conversations will be geared toward solutions for corporations, individuals and government. Think Tank events will share ideas about how to lessen our ecological and carbon footprint.
The goal: to educate and empower people through an open dialogue regarding solutions to climate change and sustainable clean energy needs, and to engage the live music community in this social movement. As a community, and as individuals, we will ask ourselves: As this election year unfolds, what will we demand of our elected leaders? What changes can we, as individuals, make in our lives that will make a difference? Which businesses are doing their part through sustainable operations, products, and services?
