Expo 2009 Wrap Up: Kate Gordon’s Keynote Address
I-Renew is proud to have featured Kate Gordon, Vice President of the Center for American Progress, as one of three key note speakers at Expo ’09.
Kate has an impressive resume, having served as Co-Director of the National Apollo Alliance until June of 2009. The Apollo Alliance is a coalition of labor, business, environmental and community leaders working to catalyze a clean energy revolution that will put millions of Americans to work in a new generation of high-quality, green-collar jobs. She is nationally recognized for her work on the intersection of clean energy and economic development policy, and especially for helping to shape the modern definition of "green-collar jobs" as "well-paid, career track jobs that contribute directly to reserving or enhancing the environment."
Kate has a long history of working for economic justice and labor issues. She serves on several boards, including the Midwest Agriculture Energy Network and the National Green Industries Policy Retreat.
