What does the future of energy hold? Join energy visionary Dr. Scott Tinker on a spectacular global adventure to find out in a screening of a new film, "Switch."
Dr. Tinker explores the world’s leading energy sites, from coal to solar, oil to biofuels, many highly restricted and never before seen on film. He gets straight answers from the people driving energy today, international leaders of government, industry and academia. In the end, he cuts through the confusion to discover a path to our future that is surprising and remarkably pragmatic.
Among the energy sites visited in the film is a Norwegian hydroelectric power plant, which features stunning vistas of Norwegian fjords and waterfalls. Norway is a large energy provider of oil and gas, but virtually all of Norway's electicity still comes from hydro power.
"Switch" is part of the Switch Energy Project, a multi-pronged effort build a balanced national understanding of energy.
