:: Campaigning for energy autonomy
+ 15.03.2010 + Hermann Scheer takes part in new film. On 18 March 2010 some fifty cinemas throughout Germany will release the film "Die 4. Revolution - EnergyAutonomy".
It is based on the best-selling book of 2005 "Energy Autonomy" by Hermann Scheer who has also taken a prominent role in the movie.
The message of this significant film is
The transition to 100% renewable energy is possible now. "Die 4. Revolution - EnergyAutonomy" is far more than just a film: It is a campaign aiming at initiating the worldwide shift in our energy habit through energy autonomy. Supporters and sponsors in a community which is developing into nationwide decentralisation are spreading knowledge about renewable energy and seek to ignite a movement on an international scale. "Die 4. Revolution - EnergyAutonomy" is an illuminating film and will win raves from its audience. It refrains from cataclismic scenarios and - unlike the effects of global warming shown in Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" - it offers solutions for a another, better future. In 1998 fechnerMedia won the European Solar Prize for excellence in film production and publishing.
Contemporaries and protagonists are: Politician Hermann Scheer (Germany), initiator Preben Maegaard, vice-president of EUROSOLAR (Denmark), innovator Elon Musk (California), human rights advocate Bianca Jagger (Britain), banker Muhamad Yunus (Bangladesh), developer Ibrahim Togola (Mali), energy entrepreneur Matthias Willenbacher (Germany) and efficiency expert Maximilian Gege (Germany).
In "Die 4. Revolution - EnergyAutonomy" Hermann Scheer, recipient of the Right Livelihood Award, Eurosolar president and member of the German parliament for the Social Democratic Party, explains his idea of distributed decentralised energy generation from renewable sources he has campaigned for for years and underpins his criticism of the conventional energy supply. Hermann Scheer already appeared in the documentary "Let's make money" last year. We are publishing his points of view taken from the film "Die 4. Revolution - EnergyAutonomy", slightly abridged and with minor changes to parts of them.
