“THE AARON HARBER SHOW: THE ENERGY ROUNDTABLE TM”
CREATING AMERICA’S FIRST COMPREHENSIVE NATIONAL ENERGY PLAN

“The Aaron Harber Show: The Energy Roundtable TM --- Creating America’s First Comprehensive National Energy Plan” is a nonpartisan, educational series focused on developing a complete and factually-honest National Energy Plan by facing the reality that the United States does not have a real National Energy Plan and has lacked one for decades.

With President Barack Obama’s “All of the above” declaration claiming the United States needs to move forward on every energy front, the Administration could be poised to align itself with many segments of the Energy Industry in a manner unforeseen by anyone on any side of the issues which have been contentious for years. The principal question now is “What does and what should ‘All of the above’ mean for the providers of different energy resources in the USA?

The television series will take on the most challenging issues related to the development and efficacious use of all energy resources and will include environmental ramifications. The principal programs are scheduled to be taped at the Congressional Auditorium in the nation’s Capital for the convenience of the members of the U.S. House and Senate, their staff members, and members of the Administration and their staffers, all of whom will be invited to attend.

The series is meant to be a major contributor to the discussions and debates occurring in elections at all levels --- from those for the Presidency to those for the U.S. House and Senate as well as those for Governor and legislative offices across the entire country in 2012 and beyond.

The series will consist of several half-hour programs which engage key stakeholders --- serving to open new lines of communication throughout the country. Guests will include energy industry leaders and experts, rights owners, government regulators, other public officials, environmentalists, consumers, academicians, the media, energy trade associations, labor associations, citizen activists, and other stakeholders.

All aspects of the world of energy --- such as energy development, energy use and conservation, energy independence, population growth, energy economics, environmental issues, energy demand, sustainability, tax policies, energy security, and government regulation (including some of the most specific controversial issues such as hydraulic fracking, emissions controls, energy subsidies, et cetera) --- will be considered for inclusion in the series.

Past editions of “The Energy Roundtable” have been endorsed by the Energy Literacy Project, the Colorado Oil & Gas Association, the Independent Petroleum Association of Mountain States, the Colorado Petroleum Association, and a number of energy-related and environmental organizations, groups, and firms.

“The Energy Roundtable” is the Public Affairs show which provides access to more guests with energy-related expertise and interests than any other television programming in the United States. With the 2012 election cycle in full swing --- with myriad energy and environmental issues at stake --- this television initiative is more important than ever. An illustrative sampling of guests interviewed for “The Energy Roundtable” series (many of whom can be seen 24/7 online at www.bit.ly/EnergyShows) includes…

“The Energy Roundtable” comes at a critical historical point due to the severe changes in the demand for, impacts of, and pricing of energy along with the debate about various energy-related policies. Extraordinary fluctuations in energy costs have generated elevated levels of public interest in energy-related issues.

An opportunity to create a structure for genuine dialogue and real solutions now exists. Colorado will be used as a national model for developing achievable national energy goals. With oil, gas, solar, hydropower, geothermal, coal, oil shale, wind, and biomass energy activity in the state, Colorado is the ideal location to start the debate and then take the discussion to Washington, DC.

To maximize audiences, the programs are part of the “The Aaron Harber Show TM” – seen on K3 Colorado (KCDO-TV Channel 3) in Denver (the nation's 16th largest media market). “The Aaron Harber Show” also is broadcast statewide by COMCAST Entertainment Television and KPXC-TV (ION Media Networks). The programs are available 24/7 worldwide on the Web at www.HarberTV.com.

“The Energy Roundtable” programs also will be offered to regional and national networks as well as to all 384 Public Television stations across the country --- targeting audiences which need to be better informed on a wide range of energy issues. USA Talk Network is in discussions with other national broadcast entities so as to maximize the audience for the series.

As a major educational element of “The Energy Roundtable,” the programs will be distributed directly to public officials, regulators, Press members, political activists, and key opinion leaders (as well as their staffs) across the country. This will be done in the form of links and DVD copies.
