DESCRIPTION:There is much discussion of reaching Net Zero emissions by vari
 ous proposed dates. As with any goal\, a plan or roadmap is required to re
 ach this target. In the case of reducing emissions of green house gases si
 gnificant sectors of the economy are impacted. Some notable examples are e
 nergy production and transportation.\n\nIn this panel discussion\, possibl
 e technologies that can be implemented by several sectors will be introduc
 ed. The intention is to start a discussion and get people thinking about v
 arious ideas and what their impacts could be. Hopefully the takeway for pa
 rticipants will be an increased understanding of the technology requiremen
 ts and the technical challenges to be overcome in attempting to reach a ne
 t-zero economy.\n\nOrganized by\n1) Dale Tardiff\, Chair\, Outreach and Pa
