The Science, Technology Options Assessment (STOA) Committee of the European Parliament is organising today a debate on the possibility to attain an oil free future. The debate will be structured around lectures given by two Nobel Prize winners in Chemistry, Prof. Paul Crutzen (1995) and Prof. George Olah (1994), as well as Shai Agassi (Better Place). Prof. Crutzen will speak on "Atmospheric chemistry and climate in the anthropocene." Prof. Olah will address the issue of "Technological carbon cycle based methanol economy for a sustainable future." S. Agassi will raise the question of "How to run a country without oil?."
