The cost of energy drives the price of everything else. The Madrone Project is a non-profit educational team that brings greater depth and scale to sustainability education by delivering advanced modular curricula curated for digital media. Madrone works with academic institutions, companies and citizens who want high quality education on the challenges facing the planet and the new research developments that will impact the future of sustainability. And the future we want to get to is in the hands on those being educated now.
Watch this TEDx video from Hunter Lovins. She explains that the problem facing energy sustainability is not that it costs more; it's that it costs less. New energy technologies are threatening older, costlier, entrenched technologies and the industries that are supported by them. That's why we're not moving into the future. We're too attached to our past.
We can change this. We can achieve energy independence. We need to educate ourselves and our young people to do this. She will explain how easily this can be done.
