Will green energy and electric cars drive a new global climate change plan?
Home to a worldwide summit on climate change in early December,
Denmark is setting a global example in creating clean power,
storing it and using it responsibly. Its reliance on wind
power to produce electricity without contributing to global warming
is well known, but now Denmark's looking to drive the point
home with electric cars. To do this, it's partnered with
social entrepreneur Shai Agassi and his company Better Place.
NOW investigates how the Danish government and Better Place are
working together to put electric cars into the hands of as many
Danish families as possible. The idea is still having trouble
getting out of the garage here in America, but Denmark could be an
inspiration.
Will so much green enthusiasm bring about a "Copenhagen Protocol"?
This show is part of a series on social entrepreneurs at work
that NOW calls "Enterprising Ideas."
