On Friday, Sightline will be at City Club's latest event, "The Once---And Future?---Promise of Energy Innovation," part of their series on Environment and Sustainability. A group of experts will be talking about the promise of energy innovation, and why it always seems stuck in the future tense. Panelists include Hilary Franz, council member for Bainbridge Island; Stan Gent, President/CEO of Seattle Steam; Andy Wappler, VP of Corporate Affairs for Puget Sound Energy; and Denis Hayes, President/CEO of the Bullitt Foundation. The panel will be moderated by Grist's ever-excellent David Roberts.
