Former White House Advisor on Environmental Quality George 'David' Banks Joins CSIS

The Center for Strategic and International Studies issued the following news release:
The Center for Strategic & International Studies (CSIS) is pleased to announce that George "David" Banks, managing director of Vanguard Political, a strategy consultancy, has joined CSIS as senior fellow and deputy director for the Program on Nuclear Energy Policy. The Program, led by Michael Wallace, will address current challenges in nuclear energy development based on the understanding that nuclear energy is an essential part of the United States' clean energy future; as well as examining the maintenance of U.S. influence on safety and nonproliferation standards around the globe.
"The United States currently operates 25 percent of commercial nuclear power facilities," said CSIS President and CEO John Hamre. "However, due to present construction rates in the developing world, that percentage may drop to 7 percent by 2050. It is imperative that we chart a path forward harmonizing business, civil, and government interests--David Banks has the expertise to help formulate that vision." http://www.utilityproducts.com/news/2013/04/16/former-white-house-advisor-on-environmental-quality-george-david-banks-joins-csis.html
