Resilient Energy Economies | Local Perspectives on Economic Futures: The View From Oil and Gas Communities
Register HereDetails
The oil and gas industry is a major economic driver in communities across the country, but price volatility, geological factors, and state and federal policy can all create short- and long-term risks to these communities’ economic stability. Using insights gathered from interviews in oil-and-gas-producing western Colorado, central Oklahoma, and Kern County, California, presenters will highlight how these communities think about their economic futures and offer potential strategies to increase their economic resilience.
Featuring:
- Nyakundi Michieka, Professor, University of California Santa Barbara
- Daniel Raimi, Fellow; Director, Communities in the Energy Transition Initiative, Resources for the Future
- Julia Haggerty, Professor, Montana State University (moderator)
