A green-tech haven

A guest appearance from Mikael af Ekenstam at the Sweco Norway exhibition at Bright Green:

The Bright Green exposition is a melting pot of exhibitions ranging from plug-in-hybrid vechicles to oil-from-algae producers. The multitude of cutting-edge technology presented shows that engineers has the solutions needed, now it's up to the politicians to pave way for them.

But the really inspiring aspect of the exposition is the visitors. Despite the high-tech focus this is not your typical trade fair with tech-geeks circling the room. As today is an off-day in the negotiations Bright Green has drawn a crowd that represents a cross section of those that follow the negotiations. My day have included meets with Danish students, American financial analysts, a Nigerian politician, Japanese journalists and the Mexican ambassador, all eager to learn more about sustainability in the world of tomorrow. I'm sure that this exposition has done a lot for convincing the visitors that there are solutions to the problems.
