DESCRIPTION: \nConference/Discussion/Debate\n\nLABOR, THE ENVIRONMENT AND PUBLIC 
 POWER\n\nSunday October 14, 2001 9:30AM-3:00PM\n\nILWU Local 34\n5 Berry 
 St./Embarcadero (Next To Pacbell Stadium)\nSan Francisco\n\n\nThe 
 deregulation of energy over the last 5 years has led not only to the layoff 
 of tens of thousands of unionized energy workers throughout the country but 
 a growing chaos in price and supply of electricity and gas. It has 
 threatened the ability of working people and small business people to pay 
 their bills and keep in business. This policy of deregulation has also 
 caused an alleged "shortage of energy". What are the real facts about this 
 so called shortage of energy and what should labor and the 
 environmental\nmovement be doing about this issue?\nShall the trade union 
 movement base it's policies on the agenda of the oil and energy companies 
 or does it need it's own program both to defend unionized jobs and to 
 protect the environment. Will these issues be addressed at the national 
 AFL-CIO convention the first week in December in Las Vegas?\nJoin us in 
 this timely conference to discuss and debate these issues and to map out a 
 possible national program for working people and environmentalists that 
 will set the agenda for the future.\n\nPresenters:\n\nDan Berman, Author of
