300 Years of FOSSIL FUELS in 300 Seconds
*** (19. MARCH 2011) WINNER OF YOUTUBE'S BEST NONPROFIT VIDEO AWARD!!! *** Fossil fuels have powered human growth and ingenuity for centuries. Now that we're reaching the end of cheap and abundant oil and coal supplies, we're in for an exciting ride. While there's a real risk that we'll fall off a cliff, there's still time to control our transition to a post-carbon future. A deeper analysis of the crises we face, and possible solutions we can work on right now can be had HERE: j.mp +++ TRANSLATIONS currently uploaded as Closed Captions -- Dutch, English, Hungarian, Italian, Korean, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish.

300 Years of FOSSIL FUELS in 300 Seconds - Please read video comment!
www.CO2negative.info -- This short and genius movie from Post Carbon Institute shows the recent history of human development with fossil fuels. More importantly it addresses several of the environmental challenges humanity now is facing. This video has been uploaded with permission from Post Carbon Institute and original source can be found at www.youtube.com www.youtube.com is promoting the work Better Globe is doing in Africa to help poor communities out of poverty by focusing on Agriculture, Education and Tree planting. Better Globe is protecting the environment both through sustainable forestry and donating trees to poor farmers. Trees help regulate local climates, protect the top soil, help keep the soil fertile, can be harvested for food and other natural commodities, reduce the negative effects of floods, create income, provide shade, prevent desertification, absorbs harmful chemicals and CO2 from the atmosphere, etc... Better Globe creates sustainable development by helping poor communities with jobs and economical development through investments and donations. Anyone can join the organization worldwide and how can you afford not to help when every Donation Package you buy give you a minimum of 6.5 return on the purchase price over 20 years, and every additional tree gives you 11 times return? The Donation Package: With every Better Globe Donation Package 2 trees are donated to poor farmers, 500 litres of water is donated, 1.5 Euro goes to microfinance, 1.5 Euro ...

Fossil-Fuel Free: Greg Pahl Explains His Wood-Pellet Boiler
Greg Pahl, author of Natural Home Heating: The Complete Guide to Renewable Energy Options, no longer relies on fossil fuels for winter heat. He has no natural gas tank or oil bill. He is not subject to the wild fluctuations in market energy prices—from expensive to ludicrous. And he isn't spewing once-buried carbon into our atmosphere all winter long. After a relatively easy swapping of boilers in his basement, Greg now enjoys clean, carbon-neutral heat throughout his home by burning sustainably-harvested and locally-produced wood pellets. In the video below, Greg explains his wood pellet boiler system. In this earlier video, Greg explained his solar domestic hot water system. Both systems are great steps to take when transitioning your home from fossil-fuels to renewable energy.

fossil fuel free Kristianstad Sweden
Kristianstad Sweden, a city of 36000 people, strives to power itself without using fossil fuels. It fuels its automobilies with biogas made from capturing the energy in garbage, sewage, slaughterhouse waste and manure. Some of this biogas, plus wood chips and methane from a landfill are burned to boil water and produce steam that turns turbines and creates electricity. The hot water then is used to heat buildings. This is an astonishing accomplishment--a lesson in the transformative power of green energy.

Requiem for Fossil Fuels Part One Introitus
Bruce Odland and Sam Auinger (O+A) performed their composition Requiem for Fossil Fuels, an "8 channel orchestra of cities" at the Ear to the Earth 2007 festival in New York City. Performance featured singers Mezzo-Soprano Hai-Ting Chinn, New York Soprano Martha Cluver, Bass Baritone Joshua Smith, and Tenor John Young; and was presented by the Electronic Music Foundation (EMF). "There come times in life when the passing of great events requires formal acknowledgment to assist in their comprehension. As we face the passing of our fossil fuel dependent way of life, we hope to gain insight by examining the sounds of our culture through the lens of the Requiem Mass." — O+A Description of the Requiem for Fossil Fuels concert from artists O+A website: www.oa.info Materials for Requiem for Fossil Fuels come from O+A's "alphabet of sounds". This collection of recordings is the result of an ongoing search for a "Hearing Perspective" of the sounds we make as a culture. Each section of Requiem for Fossil Fuels uses a location recording and its real-time flow as a cantus firmus. Over this cantus firmus, or baseline song, come soloistic voices of helicopters, jets, traffic, busses, horns, train wheels, footsteps of commuters, sirens: the found "Voices" of a fossil fueled culture organized as music. O+A have constructed this playable digital orchestra of extraordinary sonic voices extracted from cities around the world. Requiem for Fossil Fuels is the culmination of twenty years of ...

Escape
The IDEO Palo Alto play team cast this second of two videos in a future where the experience of play is shaped by the context of expensive electricity – where schools make it mandatory for children to play in order to offset the expensive fossil fuel charges. Essie, the main character, goes so far as to steal energy from a fellow student so that she can later animate her own pretend world, which is... entirely dependent on electric power.

PopTech 2009: Michael Pollan
(Edited) Author and activist Michael Pollan is a passionate advocate for sustainable food. In his compelling talk at PopTech, he explores how our industrial food system is keeping us overly dependent on fossil fuels, destroying our environment, and making us sick. Breaking this cycle requires fundamentally changing our relationship to food - and eating more meals together.

How Business Can Lead us Beyond Fossil Fuels
Amory Lovins discusses Reinventing Fire with John McDonald of Chevron at the Techonomy Conference 2010. Please note the following correction: At 17:44, instead of "micropower", it is more accurate to say that "renewables (excluding big hydro)" will pass nuclear power in capacity this year and in output in about four more years.
