Third Industrial Revolution Consulting Group United Nations Department of Peacekeeping Operations as Field Officer during the wars in Sierra Leone and Kosovo. Philipp is a graduate of Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, M.I.T Media Lab and Augsburg-University's Law Faculty. Philipp grew up in Munich, Bavaria. John “Skip” LAITNER John A. “Skip” Laitner is a resource economist who leads a team of consultants, the Economic and Human Dimensions Research Associates, based in Tucson, Arizona. He also serves as the chief economist for Jeremy Rifkin’s Third Industrial Revolution initiatives as well as a senior economist for the Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration (RANEPA). He previously worked almost 10 years as a Senior Economist for Technology Policy with the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). He left the federal service in June 2006 to focus his research on developing a more robust technology and behavioral characterization of energy efficiency resources for use in energy and climate policy analyses and within economic policy models. In 1998 Skip was awarded EPA's Gold Medal for his work with a team of economists to evaluate the impact of different strategies that might assist in the implementation of smart and more productive climate policies. In 2003 the US Combined Heat and Power Association gave him an award to acknowledge his contributions to the policy development of that industry. In 2004 his paper, “How Far Energy Efficiency?” catalyzed new research into the proper characterization of efficiency as a long-term economic development resource. Author of more than 320 reports, journal articles, and book chapters, Skip has 45 years of involvement in the environmental, energy and economic policy arenas. His expertise includes benefit-cost assessments, behavioral assessments, resource costs and constraints, and the net employment and macroeconomic impacts of energy and climate policy scenarios. His most immediate research focuses on two areas. The first area builds on the work of Robert U. Ayres and examines the links between energy inefficiency and a productive economy. In a book chapter published in 2014, Skip provides a time series dataset that suggests the United States may be only 14 percent energy-efficient, and that it is this level of inefficiency which may constrain the future development of a more robust economy. The second area explores the ways that nations, communities and the energy industry can maximize the economic opportunity of productivity-led investments while minimizing the risk of rising energy prices and disruptive energy supplies. 464
