Danish Ambassador to the U.S. Friis Arne Petersen

Earlier this week, the U.S. Ambassador to Denmark, Friis Arne Petersen, was in Vermont to talk about a variety of subjects including those renewable energy projects, and Denmark's education and health care systems. VPR's Steve Zind met up with Petersen Sunday night at the Montpelier Unitarian Church, where the ambassador was set to speak later that night. He talked with him specifically about the country's renewable energy initiatives and what a state like Vermont can learn from the Danes.
