There's a screening of Kilowatt Ours--a documentary on energy problems and cost-savings solutions from Nashville filmmaker, Jeff Barrie, Wednesday, July 16th at 7:30pm at the Power House downtown (45 G.E. Patterson). Call 237-4819 for more information.
Kilowatt Ours Reveals the Consequences of Our Coal Powered Economy.
The film opens with Vice President Dick Cheney's energy policy speech in which Cheney makes the claim that America needs nearly 1900 new power plants in the next 20 years to meet projected electricity demands.
From here, filmmaker Jeff Barrie takes viewers on a journey from the coal mines of West Virginia to the solar panel fields of Florida, as he discovers solutions to America's energy related problems.
Here's a 5 minute trailer:
Kilowatt Ours invites viewers to help build a net zero nation, by conserving energy to the greatest extent possible at home, then using clean renewable energy to provide the electricity used.
Go see the movie and tell us what you think!
