Power shift energy & sustainability

Summary: This resource examines alternative energy sources and explores the disadvantages of a global culture based on fossil fuels. A hopeful and respectful tone supports the content and empowers viewers to make choices that create a change toward sustainability. While most appropriate for Science, this video also has cross-curricular applications to Technology Education (industrial design and architecture), Economics (supply and demand theory, dollar voting) and Social Studies (global perspectives). The main ideas presented are chunked into four segments that facilitate selective viewing and provide logical breaks for discussion.
