Powering The Future

I happened to catch this on Discovery Channel last night (after Mythbusters examined the Moon Landing Conspiracy theories). It turns out it's a four part series.

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.

The episodes are

The Energy Revolution
The race to power the future.

The Energy Planet
Reasons for easing mankind's dependency on fossil fuels; ways to power Earth in the future.

Striking a Balance
Balancing energy supply and demand.

Leading the Charge
Global warming, geopolitics and geology offer reasons for change.

They were on Discovery Channel last night, but I see they are being rerun on the Science Channel this week.
