G 7-Adult Hosted and narrated by Cameron Diaz, this exciting four-part program circles the globe, exploring the remarkable ways that energy touches our daily lives. Cleverly weaving together the lives of astronauts in the Space Station, villagers in the Amazon, and an actress in Hollywood, the film examines vital energy issues and suggests ways that students can create a sustainable future. In Connections, viewers discover how energy links us as a global community. Cradle to Cradle profiles architect William McDonough, a Time magazine "Hero of the Planet," and his innovative green building designs. Energy Path answers the question, “When I turn on the light in my room, where does the electricity come from and how does it reach me?” Be the Difference encourages personal action steps such as requesting renewable energy from utilities, driving hybrid cars, and buying energy-efficient appliances. Power Shift serves as a terrific thought-starter and discussion tool for sparking a conversation around energy, sustainability, and technology. Reviews"Inspiring . . .this program provides a vital message about why new technology merits our attention and commitment." "Wow! This film is quite simply the most powerful educational piece I've ever seen on renewable energy.
Hands down." "Beautifully illustrates the role
of energy in our world. It offers easy, practical steps each
of us can take to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. The results
will be greater security, a prosperous economy, and a vibrant natural
world." "Great! Power Shift provides a critical resource
for students, teachers, parents, and anyone else interested in
learning about clean energy solutions. It takes us on a journey

by fuel cells, and homes connected to large wind farms.
This program could not be more timely as we shift from a fossil-fuel
past to a clean-energy future." "Makes a compelling case for why industrial societies and developing nations
should accelerate the transition from fossil fuels to
renewable energy. Cameron Diaz is excellent as the host
and narrator. Very current."

certainly hold the attention of my teenage daughter."

this transition to an economy that is based
on renewable energy. It is clear that a cleaner
environment and job growth can both be achieved
by better design engineering."
