I was honored to be invited to deliver a plenary presentation, "The Future of Sustainable Transportation in a Connected/Automated World," at the Oregon Department of Transportation 2015 Geo-Environmental Conference held in Eugene, Oregon on April 22, 2015. The theme of the conference was: "State of the Professions: Looking to the Future," and was a very appropriate event for commemorating Earth Day 2015. I appreciated the wonderful discussion and enjoyed the opportunity to engage with all of the participants.
