DESCRIPTION:Event @ the World Affairs Council, 2/6  What: “China: Forcing the World 
 to Rethink Its Economic Future"  Who: Lester R. Brown, President and 
 founder of the Earth Policy Institute; founder of the Worldwatch Institute; 
 and author of more than 50 books and papers including Plan B 2.0 and Who 
 Will Feed China?  Event: Convincing new evidence from China shows that its 
 existing fossil-fuel-based, automobile-centered, throwaway economy cannot 
 sustain progress much longer. Lester Brown will look at both China's 
 current consumption of basic resources, which now exceeds that of the U.S., 
 and at China's future consumption in 2031 when its income is projected to 
 reach that of the U.S. today. Dr. Brown will discuss ways to restructure 
 the global economy so that it can sustain economic progress through 
 renewable energy, the reuse and recycling of materials, and a diverse 
 transport system.  When: Monday, February 6; check-in: 5:30 PM, program: 
 6:00 PM  Where: World Affairs Council, 312 Sutter St., 2nd Floor Conference 
 Room, San Francisco  \n
