    Hydrogen
    Nov 26 2022
    There is a gas that is extremely abundant in nature, that can generate three times as much energy as methane when burned, and that also doesn’t produce environmentally harmful emissions after combustion but releases water instead: it’s hydrogen, the key to reducing emissions for the sectors that can’t be easily electrified.

    Wind

    This journey starts with 1,000-year-old Persian windmills and takes us to the troposphere where we float along flying power plants. When the wind of change blows, we better fly our kites as high as possible!

    Earth
    Nov 9 2022
    This journey through the geysers of Iceland and into the warm depths of the Earth gives us the chance to reflect on the infinite, free resources the planet makes available to us every day. By focusing on resources that are naturally abundant, we can let go of the “infinite growth” mindset and create a world that is focused on distribution rather than accumulation.

    Sun
    Nov 2 2022
    The incredible discovery that the sun's rays cause electrical effects on certain liquids dates back to 1839. From then to the invention and widespread use of solar panels, the Earth has circled the Sun hundreds of times. It took time but wars and economic crises have made it increasingly clear that choosing renewable energy also means choosing peace and democracy. The sun is the ultimate democratic resource because no country can stop the sun from shining.

    Coal
    Oct 26 2022
    1825 was the year when the streetlamps of Paris were no longer lit by lamplighters, one by one, but were finally connected to a centralized system and powered by a gas made from coal, making the French capital known as "ville lumiere," the "city of light." For many years coal was considered a godsend, but today we must do everything we can to divest from it. Why?
