WHAT: Renowned director and environmentalist James Cameron will be joined by The New York Times' Thomas Friedman, actress Sigourney Weaver, MSNBC's Joe Scarborough and Rep. Diane Watson (D-CA) to discuss global environmental policies and sustainable approaches critical to keeping our planet from suffering the fate depicted in the film, AVATAR.

Issues to be addressed will include:

Taxation" of Americans

practices

dirty extractive energy
