Energy NIMBYism: Larry Susskind on NHPR

Lawrence Susskind, CBI Founder/Chief Knowledge Officer and MIT Professor, is featured on New Hampshire Public Radio's "The Exchange", addressing the issue of NIMBYism (Not in My Backyard) — those who oppose local siting of renewable energy projects because of the actual or perceived losses to themselves and their community, regardless of potential benefits. Susskind recommends that energy planners and developers inform the public about projects before decisions about siting are made and give all stakeholders a chance to participate in the decision making process.
