According to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the creation of a green economy is an increasingly promising solution to multiple challenges. Sustainable business and energy independence are keys to our economic revitalization. America can boost its own infrastructure by powering industry with plentiful domestic renewable resources. A sophisticated, well-crafted energy policy will help sharpen American competitiveness while reducing energy costs. Intelligent energy policy is also the national fulcrum for U.S. foreign policy and national security. From green jobs and technologies to weaning our reliance on carbon energy, Kennedy offers a bold vision to restore U.S. economic might, safeguard our environment and reestablish America’s role as an exemplary nation.
On April 9, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will deliver a passionate defense of the environment and of how its continued neglect affects the planet and the health of future generations at EcoWatch’s second annual Green Gala. He is an advocate with a direct and aggressive approach against entities whose policies accelerate pollution and maintain the status quo. Kennedy calls upon all people to actively make a difference in their world.
Kennedy is chief prosecuting attorney for the Hudson Riverkeepers, senior attorney for the Natural Resources Defense Council, president of the Waterkeeper Alliance and is the first among a new breed of environmentalist. Currently a partner in Silicon Valley’s VantagePoint Ventures Partners’ cleantech investment team, Kennedy was named one of Rolling Stone magazine’s “100 Agents of Change.” A high-profile political speaker and activist, he has used numerous media outlets and publications, including his 2004 book, Crimes Against Nature, to call into question the environmental policies of the U.S.
