Lecture: Rising Powers, Shrinking Planet: The New Geopolitics of Energy by author, Michael Klare

How is America’s energy dependence altering our country’s place in the world and how might this affect your future? On 18 September at 7:00pm, hear Michael Klare, discuss his latest book Rising Powers, Shrinking Planet: The New Geopolitics of Energy, and describe how the neocons’ prediction of a “new American century” didn’t pan out because of shrinking energy resources and US dependence on foreign petroleum. Klare, who is a frequent guest on NPR and Democracy Now, will speak and sign books in Fondren Hall at St Paul’s United Methodist Church, 5501 Main St., across from the Houston Museum of Fine Arts. Klare will sign books after his talk. For more information, see the event calendar at www.hpjc.org or call 281 414 1386. This free public event is sponsored by the Houston Peace & Justice Center.
