When I envision my future I see myself living in a house powered by solar and wind energy, driving an electric or algae fueled car, and growing my own fruits and vegetables in my backyard garden. And I don't think I will be alone.
So many clean and sustainable energy innovations have been showing up in my space recently-- its so exciting! Its incredibly easy to get sucked into the we've-already-trashed-the-planet-there's-nothing-we-can-do-about-it-now-why-change-our-habbits-let's-just-keep-doing-what-we're-doing-syndrome, a.k.a complaining and seeing no possibility for the future. But there is an abundance of extraordinary research, innovations and ideas that can free us from our dependence on fossil fuels NOW. Many clean-energy sources are already in use. The next steps are to produce infinite, accessible and cheap clean-energy.
Below is a film, article and television show that get me PUMPED about the reinvention of fuel and reinvention of life as we know it. I think this is such an exciting time to be alive and to experience this tremendous and necessary shift in the way we use energy. My generation will be the first who will have the choice to move forward and choose reinvented fuel and a totally reinvented life. Let's choose it.
The Fuel Film is an awesome documentary about how to transform our relationship with oil. It's worth watching from start to finish.
I was flipping though TV guide the other night and stumbled upon a new channel, Planet Green and a new show called Powering the Future. CHECK IT OUT. I learned so much about what's possible for energy on the planet in just a 30 minute episode. DO IT!
A few days ago my mom was talking about getting a new car when our Honda Civic's lease is up this year. She wants to get a Mercedes. I suggested getting a hybrid. These are even better!
