Episode 2. Renewable Energy

The great transition from fossil fuels to renewable forms of energy is well underway worldwide. Rising oil prices spur us to rethink U.S. energy futures and reduce our vulnerability to foreign supplies.  Entrepreneurs, inventors and venture capitalists are now leading the way to a cleaner, greener, more energy-efficient future.  Europe and Japan are ahead of the U.S. in solar and wind power. China and India have much to teach us about traditional ways of meeting human needs while preserving natural resources and the environment.  The U.S. Mid-West has been described as our “OPEC of Wind Energy” with the potential to meet much of our own domestic electricity needs. This energy transition can create millions of new jobs, clean our air and water while reducing problems of atmospheric pollutants.
