GCAGS 2012 Annual Convention
“Solving for E3”
Hosted by the Austin Geological Society
Austin is pleased to be the host city for the 2012 GCAGS Annual Meeting and Exposition! Our theme is "Solving for E3" – addressing the complexities at the intersection of Energy, Environment, and Economy. There are few better places to study this interplay than in the Gulf Coast where growing populations have an unprecedented economic strength built in large degree on a long history of Gulf of Mexico resource development and exploration. The world though is growing smaller and the challenges to economic stability, environment quality, and energy supply are only getting bigger! Come to Austin and experience all that the city and the GCAGS have to offer, and while here help us unravel some of these complexities by:
- Meeting and conversing with colleagues
- Presenting an oral paper or a poster
- Attending a field trip or short course
- Listening to presentations on the newest technologies
