Video Description:(Show || Hide)
Three minute excerpt from PBS series e2 energy narrated by Morgan Freeman. This episode is the first in the series and titled "Harvesting the Wind." Show is set to begin airing Fall '07. Check local listing for details, or visit our website at http://www.pbs.org/designe2/
Episode takes the viewer to southwest Minnesota, where wind energy is a burgeoning source of local power and income for farmers. Some have joined forces in wind cooperatives to invest in larger farms and reap bigger profits. In the absence of a strong renewable energy policy at the federal level, the state government plays a key role in wind policy, begging the question: Will the rest of the U.S. follow Minnesota's lead?
