About 220 residents from Akron and surrounding areas joined ConocoPhillips at the Crowne Plaza Akron Quaker Square on May 30 for a “Conversation on Energy,” co-hosted by the University of Akron. The town hall meeting, 14th in a 35-city nationwide listening tour, called on residents to share their views on energy issues and to gain insight and information from a panel of experts. The dialogue included perspectives on a variety of energy topics and an extensive question and answer session with the audience.
