EPI had the pleasure of honoring President Obama at the Green Inaugural Ball on Sunday. The Ball was an opportunity to bring together the broad environmental, conservation, and clean tech community to celebrate the past four years and look forward to the future. EPI was thrilled to be a member of the host committee, so we put on our Sunday best and braved the cold D.C. streets the night before inauguration. The event took place on the seven floors of the Newseum in downtown Washington D.C. and featured performances by seven-time Grammy Award winner will.i.am , master trombonist Trombone Shorty , and soul singer Mayer Hawthorne with appearances by EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson, " Damages " actor Tate Donovan, " Breaking Bad 's" Giancarlo Esposito, and Bill Nye "The Science Guy," a crowd favorite. The highlight of the night though was a surprise appearance by Vice President Joe Biden. “I came to say thank you,” Biden said. “I also came to tell you what my green wish is: that we finally face up to climate change.” Little did we know that the President himself would reiterate the need to fix climate change the next day in his Inaugural address . Along with the celebrity appearances, EPI staff enjoyed the elevator bars—that’s right bars in the elevators—where the event’s exclusive signature cocktail, the OM -bam a was served, appetizers by Wolfgang Puck , with 98% of the ingredients on the menu procured from within 300 miles, and the ...
