Transatlantic Climate Bridge - an initiative to foster transatlantic cooperation and partnerships between Germany, the US and Canada on climate and energy policies - at the local, the state and the federal level.
"On March 12, 2012, the Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) and the Heinrich Böll Foundation held a Congressional briefing which discussed the energy transition occurring in Germany and how that compares, specifically with regard to the solar sector, with the United States. In the international race to a low-carbon economy, Germany has raised particular interest with its quick transition from coal and nuclear energy to a renewable-energy based economy."
"The German American Chamber of Commerce is now accepting applications from U.S. students and young professionals for the sixth Transatlantic Program - Young Technology Leaders delegation focused on "Sustainable Manufacturing". TAP-YTL will offer 12 select participants the chance to explore sustainability innovations and solutions in manufacturing during an intensive, 8-day trip throughout Germany. The program will take place June 9 - 17, 2013. "
