We are introducing a new regular feature here on Domestic Fuel that will take a look at some of the many books and movies out there that take on the topics of environment, energy and renewables.

Our Domestic Fuel book and movie reviewer is Joanna Schroeder, who has been the communications director for the Ethanol Promotion and Information Council (now Growth Energy) since September of 2005, and is now starting her own communications company focused on the renewable energy industry. Joanna has a strong background in both environmental science and technical communications, which makes her well qualified to provide in-depth analysis of current literature and film in the field of energy and the environment.

Joanna is an Accredited Public Relations (APR) professional who specializes in PR strategy, issues management, media training, media relations and environmental initiatives. She is in the process of planning a “Communicating Renewables” conference this spring in Minneapolis for communicators working in the alternative energy industry.

Expect to hear more about that in the coming weeks – in the meantime, enjoy her critiques.
