My name is Seth Leitman and I am The Green Living Guy. This is my first blog post
as The Green Living Guy. I write extensively about electric vehicles, drawing on
years of firsthand experience.

As I have written about on my homepage:

Welcome to the Green Living Guy website! I’m Seth Leitman, a Green Living and Electric
Car expert. I’m also a professional speaker and sustainability PR consultant!

I have worked for the [New York State Energy Research and Development Authority](https://www.nyserda.ny.gov/)(
NYSERDA)  and the New York Power Authority ([NYPA](http://Nypa.gov)). While at NYSERDA,
I managed the first $100 million for hybrid-electric transit buses and other alternative-
fuel initiatives.

![Live Green CT. My name is Seth Leitman and I am The Green Living Guy. This is 
my first blog post as The Green Living Guy. So while I do write about electric vehicles
a lot I have the experience](https://i0.wp.com/greenlivingguy.com/wp-content/uploads/
2015/03/2012-09-16-09-04-33-1.jpg?resize=400%2C266&quality=52&ssl=1)

I also worked in the New York State Senate. I created this blog to give people a
place to share relevant information about energy, transportation, and the environment.

Finally, I also interned for Congressman Benjamin Gilman and Senator Daniel Patrick
Moynihan. Both internships took place in [Washington DC](https://greenlivingguy.com/2017/11/washington-dc-named-first-leed-platinum-city-in-the-world/).
My work in New York State government helped shape my path toward becoming a green
expert on television. From electric cars to green schools to [LED green lighting](https://greenlivingguy.com/2019/09/why-led-green-lighting-rocks-and-others-dont/).
My experience dates back to 1998 and includes projects in indoor air quality and
alternative-fuel vehicles.

Besides the [Eco Consulting Services](https://greenlivingguy.com/2006/03/the-suburbs-unplugged-nypathink-clean-commute-program-ny-times/)
and books, I (Seth Leitman) am also published in reports. So that includes the Electric
Power Research Institute and the US Department of Energy. As well, the [US Department of Energy](https://avt.inl.gov/sites/default/files/pdf/uev/nypa2003annualreport.pdf)
and finally the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority.

My work covers [transportation](https://greenlivingguy.com/2005/10/one-of-the-electric-vehicle-programs-i-was-involved-in/),
[energy](https://greenlivingguy.com/2005/10/low-speed-vehicle-ev-program-green-living-guy-worked/),
environment and renewable energy issues that face our world today. My company is
called ETS Energy Store LLC  So people always ask what does ETS stand for?!  Well,
E is for [energy efficiency](https://greenlivingguy.com/2015/04/aceee-state-energy-tool-for-emission-reductions/),
T stands for transportation, and S stands for [sustainability](https://greenlivingguy.com/2012/06/californias-building-code-energy-efficiency-measures/).

In conclusion: Thank you for your interest in this blog.

Seth, great idea especially with all the postings in the last couple of weeks concerning
Electrovaya and REVA. Looks like BEV ain’t dead yet.
