Dan Esty, Commissioner of the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, has a plan for energy security that includes a huge investment in natural gas. But what about the effects of natural gas extraction methods like fracking and the uncertainty of future low prices? What about the need for renewable sources of energy?

Join Esty in a conversation with Where We Live in a program taped before a live audience at the Mark Twain House in Hartford, sponsored by the World Affairs Council of Connecticut.

What do you think Connecticut's energy future should look like?
