Fueling the Future: A 4 Part Series, produced by KBDI-TV, Denver, 58 minutes each. Produced for national PBS broadcast and hosted by Hodding Carter, this award-winning series on U.S. energy practices covers transportation, farming, housing, and disposable products. Each of the four videos traces the history of the topic, and asks how a more secure energy future can be obtained. They include Running on Empty, which traces how the automobile became the mainstay of U.S. transportation and examines the viability of alternative fuels and revitalizing public transportation. Hot-Wiring American Farms shows how heavy use of fossil fuels has enabled American farmers to become highly productive in the short-term; questions about the future of agriculture are raised. It examines the impact of energy-intensive farming and explores more efficient alternatives, including many sustainable ag practices. The video features several California growers and spokespeople. No Deposit, No Return investigates wastefulness in the U.S., the energy cost of "throw-aways," and possible solutions. No Place Like Home examines how communities evolved in an era of cheap energy, and highlights how some planners are working to develop a more energy-efficient approach. Institutions may purchase each video for $79 ($279 for the series) or rent each for $45. Individuals and low-income groups pay $39.95 per video ($139 for the series) and $25 for rentals.
