Energy is power
It is connected to everything in our lives: our jobs, our health, the food we eat, the places we live, the weather we experience, and the wars we fight. Over the past few hundred years, our energy has primarily come from fossil fuels—oil, coal, and gas. But these are causing global climate chaos—and are running out.
Until now, energy has been controlled by a small number of large corporations. And governments have been giving about US$300 billion of subsidies to these corporations every year. Thanks to this arrangement, some people have become very rich. But most people are simply dependent on these companies for the power they need—and two billion people, or one third of the world’s population, are still without access to reliable energy.
We need to switch.
With existing technology, we can capture enough renewable energy from the sun, wind, water, and the earth to power the world six times over. This technology can bring clean energy to everyone, everywhere. All we need is the political will and determined action to make it happen.
