Discovery Channel: POWERING THE FUTURE
POWERING THE FUTURE is a four-part documentary that tackles all about green technology updates and innovations. Hosted by Dr. M. Sanjayan, lead scientist at The Nature Conservancy. It is a very informative show that explains the status of fossil fuels and renewable energy sources. It aims to help educate viewers and empower them to take action with their personal energy needs.
POWERING THE FUTURE puts energy on the national stage, addressing the challenge from every angle and cutting through the noise by establishing a target: identifying a clean, limitless, secure energy supply and addressing how it could possibly be delivered. Producers traveled 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 people at the heart of the issue.
