How to Save the Planet – Short Film (2010)

A tongue-in-cheek, super hero themed short film to promote green living. This particular video encourages a reduction in energy consumption to help combat global warming.

The video, starring Sam Illingworth, was used as part of a film making course for young people. It was shot in one day with a Canon XL2 and edited in Adobe Premiere Pro CS3.

Key words:
global, warming, climate, change, green, living, super, hero, reduce, energy, consumption, co2, emissions, carbon, footprint, lower, save, planet, earth, short, film, video, promote, canon xl2, premiere

No pedals and not a motorcycle, maybe it is a scooter or pocket bike. On sunny days I can charge using solar pannels and sunshine.

Thekpv gained momentum in the summer of 2008 by Terry Hope. After approximately a thousand hours of e-bike research and development his DIY micro mobility electric vehicle concept materialized with four goals:

Engineer a electrical circuit with an mechanical system to capture, store and harvest electrical power.

Use alternative energy for a prototype electro-solar hybrid.

Eliminate extra greenhouse gas emissions and lower the carbon footprint by recharging the battery pack off-the-grid.

Construct a vehicle with a solar pannels & small enough foot print to be stowed away inside a Samsonite suitcase for easy transport.
