She is currently the Vice President and Director of the Energy and Climate Program at the nonpartisan think tank called The Center for the Next Generation in San Francisco and a Senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress (CAP) in Washington D.C.〔 She is also contributor to ''The Huffington Post'' and ''The Wall Street Journal''.〔 ''Campaigns and Elections'' magazine named Gordon one of the top fifty “Influencers to watch ahead of the 2014 election cycle.”〔 Formerly, Gordon a senior associate at the Center on Wisconsin Strategy (COWS), co-director of the national Apollo Alliance (currently part of the Blue Green Alliance), and Vice President for Energy and Environment at the Center for American Progress (CAP), where she developed policies and communications strategies regarding clean energy manufacturing, regional economic development in clean energy sectors, and American competitiveness in relation to China and the E.U.. Gordon testified before Congress on October 28, 2009 regarding an energy and jobs bill. Gordon appeared on ''The Rachel Maddow Show'' in 2010 regarding the moratorium on deepwater drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. Gordon debated Andrew Morriss, one of the co-authors of ''The False Promise of Green Energy'', at the Cato Institute on April 21, 2011. Morriss argued that having top-down governmental programs manage green energy and green jobs was a flawed concept, driven by misguided economic thinking and bad data. Gordon countered Morriss’ assertions with arguments that the data actually shows otherwise: that government programs (versus free market, competitive forces) have generated new jobs and transformed existing jobs and economic forces.〔 Gordon received an undergraduate degree from Wesleyan University. Gordon earned a J.D. and master’s degree in city planning from the University of California-Berkeley.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kate Gordon (energy analyst)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
