Doc with an EcoModernist slant
15 June 2020
Narrator & co-producer Bryce is well known among some circles as a person with a strictly pragmatic view of this world. If it works - great! If there are secondary issues - work through them. If you wish to avoid problems - ask the right questions beforehand. Tell the story simply if you wish to be understood.

Bryce has been following & writing about the energy sector for about 3 decades, and along with a bit of grey hair he has also gained insights into the hows & whys of energy use. Here he trots around the globe to specific locales which highlight certain societal traits of energy use. Along the way he learned a few new insights himself, which are also included in his new book "A Question of Power" released in March of 2020.

I'd recommend this documentary to any who are interested in the nexus points between energy, the environment, climate change, & the posterity of human society. BTW- EcoModernism is a belief that eco-friendliness is compatible with economic prosperity. If you understand the phrase "Prophets or Wizards", Bryce seems to lean towards the wizards as a pragmatic perspective of life in a peaceful & resource abundant 21st century.
