The documentary explores the question of what needs to happen in terms of politics, policies, and society to implement what is technically possible, when it comes to renewable energy. To do this, the film visits two completely different places. One is in the US and the other, in Bavaria. These localities have two things in common: Both have completely converted their energy supply to renewables and as a result, both now have more money in their coffers today than before.
The documentary provides a global overview of the solutions that already exist for a worldwide energy transition. And it asks what challenges still need to be overcome -- not only in the laboratories and power plants, but also among the movers and shakers who must drive the change today.

For those criticizing renewables saying they will never “overtake” fossil fuels. They don’t have to 100% replace them for them to be effective. Even if renewables make up 15,20,25% of the global energy production, that’s still better than 0. Over time, hundreds of years perhaps, renewables will be the dominant energy source. I dont understand the logic that we have to wait for oil to he prohibitively expensive for us to start thinking about sustainable energy.

"we did not inherit this planet from our parents. we're borrowing it from our children" very beautiful!

I've noticed that some people tend to view solutions in absolute terms: either as completely ineffective(0%) or as the best possible choice(100%). But I believe that evaluating options on a scale of 'better' or 'worse' is more effective than labelling them as 'the best' or 'the worst'. The video helped me realise this about my own approach to decision-making.

Renewables can team up with hydrogen to create energy loops, that are far more efficacious than current generation strategies. Combining with hydrogen is the key.
