探索频道 未来能源

As the crisis in the Gulf deepens, the ongoing search for viable alternative energy sources is more urgent than ever before, but navigating the complex web of options is both complicated and confusing. Discovery Channel and Science Channel are pulling back the curtains to reveal our quest for clean energy.


　　From economics and climate change to national security and global politics, energy is the driving force behind most everything on the planet. Powering The Future puts energy on the national stage, addressing the challenge from every angle and cutting through the noise by establishing a target: identify a clean, limitless, secure energy supply and address how that energy could possibly be delivered. The show travels to more than 30 different locations around the world -- from an offshore oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico to the oil sands of Canada, Washington, DC to Beijing, China -- to meet with the movers and shakers whose work is at the heart of the issue.


　　"We are the energy generation, but we as Americans do not fundamentally understand what energy is, where it comes from, how we use it and how much we need," said Dr. Sanjayan. "Powering The Future aims to help educate viewers and empower them to take action with their personal energy needs. Watch the show and you won't throw a light switch, eat a hamburger, drive a car, fly a plane or look at the New York City skyline the same way again."


　　Powering the Future, a brand-new four-hour special series, is hosted by Dr. M. Sanjayan, lead scientist at The Nature Conservancy, the special closely examines where our energy could come from and how we are striving to create a clean, limitless, secure supply of energy.


　　Powering the Future premieres Saturday, July 17 from 8-10 PM and Sunday, July 18 from 8-10 PM on Discovery Channel with encore presentations on Science Channel Monday, July 19 from 9-11 PM and Tuesday, July 20 from 9-11 PM.

10年过去了，人类对化石燃料的需求越来越多，排放温室气体也越来越多，没有任何往可持续发展的方向运转的迹象。

好看！“节约”这个概念对于人类来说是没有用的，还是要前进，去寻找稳定，安全，环保可持续的能源。

Well organized and very inspiring! 题外话：在最后一集里讲述美国空军的生物柴油与传统柴油的性能测试时看到了久违的“走你”梗哈哈哈

风电核能太阳能，倡议推广以及利用存在的危险 共四集，[探索频道]【未来地球：能源危机】

算是很中肯的一部纪录片 也指出了新能源的不足 最重要的是shell赞助拍摄的

新能源材料只有变得越来越便宜和稳定才能不断的被大众接受。太阳能材料花了20年还没有被普及。
