KILOWATT OURS reveals the underreported side effects resulting from America’s voracious appetite for coal-generated electricity, and alternatives that give hope for the future. Also: we’ll have an in-depth discussion on solar alternatives for the Northwest, with the folks from PUGET SOUND SOLAR and SOLAR WASHINGTON. Q: What would you find if you traced the wires from your light switch to the energy source? A: Mountain top removal? global warming? childhood asthma? … or hope? Vice President Dick Cheney, in his well-known energy policy speech of April 30, 2001, claimed that America must build 1900 new power plants by 2020. That is one new power plant per week for the next two decades in order to meet projected electricity demands. “KILOWATT OURS” challenges this assertion by presenting hope-filled alternatives based on conservation, efficiency and renewable power. AND JOIN US FOR AN ENLIGHTENING CONVERSATION ON SOLAR POWER IN THE NORTHWEST. (Event is FREE and open to the public! ...but Donations are kindly accepted).
