I am in DC - went to the announcement last Thurs of "RIC's" - Regional Innovation Clusters - by Sec of Commerce Gary Locke. Six centers received grants. SBA also gave out ten other grants for new clusters. Google it for more info.
I was in nyc last sun, mon, tues - for the focus on MDG's and the UN - read Bono's editorial in the NY Times last Sunday 9/19 -
and I was also at some of the Climate Week meetings - I went to part of the Carbon War Room's gathering. The former President of Costa Rica talked about initiatives he did - included a gas tax in Costa Rica. He said wryly, "Presidents can not run for re-election in Costa Rica - which made it easier when I wanted to implement a gas tax."
Off to Chicago Tues for Water Innovations Alliance conference
