JoAnn Armenta is the Southern California coordinator for Clean Cities Coalition, a program administered by The Partnership. Its mission is to advance the nation’s economic, environmental, and energy security by supporting local decisions to adopt practices that contribute to the reduction of petroleum consumption. Clean Cities carries out this mission through a network of more than 80 volunteer coalitions, which develop public/private partnerships to promote alternative fuels and vehicles, fuel blends, fuel economy, hybrid vehicles, and idle reduction. I spoke with JoAnn at the Alternative Car & Transportation Expo about her work.
