In my last post, I asked "Can the Senate pass a bill that delivers 2 million jobs, 2 billion tons and $2 trillion?" Tuesday night I'll be joining a panel of experts to discuss that question and more at George Washington University. The event will start with a one-on-one discussion with EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson followed by a panel discussion which will include questions from the live and online audience. You can submit questions online for the panel and vote for the best questions now using Google moderator. Watch a live stream of the event at 7pm EST on Planet Forward's website and chat live with other viewers. Or participate in the debate on Twitter, using the hash tag #pf420.

The panel includes Ana Unruh-Cohen, House Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming; Jim Connaughton, Constellation Energy Group; Andrew Revkin, Dot Earth blog; and Kate Sheppard, Mother Jones.

As I discuss in this short video clip, we have made a lot of progress since the first Earth Day, but we can't rest on our laurels. This Earth Day we need more than a celebration, we need a clean energy revolution that adds 2 million clean energy jobs, cuts 2 billion tons of global warming pollution and saves 2 trillion dollars worth of oil imports.

If you’re in DC and would like to attend, you can RSVP.

Hi,

I may be "off topic" here but can you please tell me if the ice caps are shrinking or getting back to 1979 sizes? I have heard both.

I'm sure you're really busy, a one word reply would be great.

Thanks,

regards,

Keith
