 Energy consumption, conservation, global warming and the health and future of America’s children were among the issues discussed at a recent town hall meeting in Charleston, W. Va. Approximately 240 residents gathered at the Charleston Marriott Town Center on Feb. 1, 2007 to question, comment or offer solutions for the nation’s growing energy appetite.
