Acton Lecture Series (April 26, 2012) - Green energy advocates claim that transforming America to an economy based on wind, solar, and biofuels will produce jobs for Americans, benefits for the environment, and restore American industry. Prof. Andrew Morriss, co-author of The False Promise of Green Energy, shows that these claims are based on unrealistic assumptions, poorly thought out models, and bad data. Rather than leading us to an eco-utopia, he argues that current green energy programs are crony capitalism that impoverishes American consumers and destroys American jobs.
Acton Lecture Series (March 21, 2012) - In 2004, the global movement of Business as Mission (BAM) was captured in an occasional paper distributed by the Lausanne Forum for World Evangelization. The 10 guiding principles of BAM affirm human dignity and provide a foundation for businesses that seek to honor God in every way. Since the publication of the occasional paper, the BAM movement has grown significantly. 2012 marks the launch of the 2nd Global Think Tank on Business as Mission. This consultative process will reach every corner of the globe, invigorate the movement with case studies and lessons learned, and explore innovative development in sub-fields like BAM and Human Trafficking, BAM-in-a-Box, and BAM that alleviates U.S. poverty.
