Amory Lovins will give a talk as part of the CEE 10: Approaching CEE: Sustainability in Practice seminar series (see below for more information about the seminar). 

Physicist Amory Lovins (1947– ) is Cofounder (1982) and Chairman Emeritus, and was Chief Scientist (2007–19), of RMI (Rocky Mountain Institute, www.rmi.org), with which he continues to collaborate. He has designed numerous superefficient buildings, vehicles, and industrial plants, and synthesized an "integrative design" method and practice that can make the energy efficiency resource severalfold larger, yet cheaper, often with increasing returns. Since 1973 he has also advised major firms and governments in >70 countries on advanced energy efficiency and strategy, emphasizing efficiency, renewables integration, and the links between energy, resources, environment, security, development, and economy. He is a Visiting Scholar of the Precourt Institute for Energy. Amory's full bio is available here.

This seminar series will feature guest speakers that do sustainability-focused work or research in each of CEE's four undergraduate degree program areas (Atmosphere/Energy, Civil Engineering, Environmental Systems Engineering, and Sustainable Architecture+Engineering). The seminar series is intended for current CEE majors and minors as well as students that are considering a CEE major or minor. The series will help students see the interconnectedness of the department's different focus areas while simultaneously building interest in the CEE major.
