SEASON 1 | 第一季 | energy | 能源
簡介：(本季由演員 Morgan Freeman 擔任旁白口述) Global in scope and comprised of six 30-minute chapters filmed in HD, e² energy features the engineers, policymakers and innovations that are transforming energy availability and consumption. Each episode covers viable policy and technology alternatives to the fossil fuel culture. Episodes explore: California as a world leader in emissions control; transportation and the need for greater efficiencies; ethanol in Brazil and its future in the United States; distributed solar energy as a means to poverty alleviation in Bangladesh; community wind in Minnesota and its role in regional economic development; and the role of coal and nuclear power in our future energy mix. Solutions-oriented, the series illustrates the trials and trade-offs that any evolution in our global energy system will demand. e² energy is narrated by Morgan Freeman.

This is the first in a series of video podcasts for the PBS series e2 energy. Each podcast takes you beyond the episodes and deeper into the world of alternative energy. This episode takes a closer look at the process of manufacturing windmill blades, which takes place at the Suzlon Rotor Corporation in Pipestone, MN. The region is a growing source of wind power, much of which is owned by local farmers and community collectives.
The first episode begins in New York, a city that is leading the charge to green its industrial skyline with several groundbreaking projects. New York combats the urban myth of the bustling city as a "concrete jungle." "The Green Apple" explores some of Manhattan's most prominent and technologically advanced structures like One Bryant Park and The Solaire, as well as the innovative minds behind them. The episode illustrates how the ubiquitous skyscraper can surprisingly be a model of environmental responsibility.

This is the fifth in a series of video podcasts for the PBS series e2 energy. Each podcast takes you beyond the episodes and deeper into the world of alternative energy. This podcast explores a process called "carbon sequestration" which may one day allow the United States and other countries to burn abundant coal reserves without emitting greenhouse gases. But the technology is far from complete, and some skeptics question its ability to effectively capture carbon dioxide. Learn more about the carbon capture process from leading researchers in the field.
