Physicist Amory Lovins, who is called one of the Western world's most influential energy thinkers, will speak at Keppel Auditorium on the Catawba College campus on Wednesday, April 17, at 6:30 p.m.

Lovins, chief scientist and chairman emeritus of the Rocky Mountain Institute, will speak on "Transforming the Energy named him one of the 100 top global thinkers.

According to Lovins "most of the energy we use is wasted. Smarter technologies and designs that use energy more efficiently could provide the same or better services with far less energy, money, and risk.

Moreover, the fossil fuels that provide most of our energy now generally cost more than the modern renewable sources that have already taken over two-thirds of the world's power-plant market."

The presentation at Catawba is free but registration is required.
