Chapter 10 Script

VO: “Here’s a challenge for all of us.  Let’s reduce our electricity use by 25% or more in every home, school and business. As our electricity bills go down, let’s sign up for green power, at least one block, and put solar technologies on our homes, if we’re able.  We can DO this!  Think of the jobs it’ll create and the boom to the economy as we tackle this challenge.  This effort requires cooperation from public officials and the government.  Utilities, and manufacturers, builders, teachers and students, non profit organizations and everybody. All of us doing our part, starting at home.  C’mon, get excited.  We owe it to the people of Appalachia, and to our children.  We owe it to ourselves to take this challenge seriously.  If we do, I believe one day soon, we’ll wonder how we ever let it get so bad in the first place, and we’ll marvel at how easy it was to fix it.  Thank you for taking this journey with me.  The real journey is about to begin.”
