THE GOSPEL OF GREEN
As the world confronts the reality of global warming and the
inevitable end of oil, the questions of what to do and how to sustain
energy without oil or fossil fuels becomes more urgent. Bob McKeown
and a fifth estate team travel to Germany to meet Hermann Scheer,
called "Europe's Al Gore," a parliamentarian who is leading the way to
increase Germany's reliance on renewable energy sources such as wind
power and solar power. To date, 15% of Germany's energy comes from
renewable sources. Scheer estimates that if Germany continues on this
course, by 2030 that will be 100%. So, if one of the world major
industrialized nations can achieve this, why can't a country like
Canada? The answer may lie in the fifth estate's investigation of the
influence, in this country, of conventional energy industry on
politicians.
