www.betterplace.com GLOBE Tv correspondent Mike Cerre reports on how Denmark has pioneered sustainability initiatives from wind generators and bicycle commuting to using electric cars to reduce CO2 car emissions and as storage devices for renewable energy. Find out how the Danish island of Samsø has gone to 100% renewable energy over the past 10 years and reduced their carbon footprint by 147%! Better Place, a global electric vehicle services provider, and Dong Energy, Denmark’s largest power company are teaming-up to build the first nationwide electric vehicle (EV) network of charge spots, powered by renewable energy, and battery switching stations for further reducing Denmark’s auto and small truck emissions. They are also working with the national railway on EV car rentals at train stations to make the electric car experience more practical for driving between cities. Interviews include the former Minister of Climate and Energy Connie Hedegaard, who chaired the UN’s COP-15 climate change summit; the Mayor of Copenhagen- Klaus Bondam; Dong Energy CEO Anders Eldrup; Better Place- Denmark CEO- Jens Moberg; plus Danish farmers, housewives and students who have switched to EV cars.

Invest in algae research…now there is a source of unlimited energy. Grow your own in your back yard, converted it to fuel & you can cut the cost of the money you spend on oil
The USA, no2 per-capita energy user among large countries, has terrific wind resources both on- and off-shore – and a level of insolation that Denmark can only dream of.
Even if your electricity is 100% coal, your EVs will still be (slightly) cleaner than ICEs.
As you clean up the grid, you clean up the air without having to modify the autos.
Many places that COULD match the Danes, who have a holistic approach that includes efficiency and conservation, simply aren’t trying hard enough
Way to go Denmark ,now if the rest of the world wood follow it would be alot better for us all.
WORLD RECORD: BIGGEST WIND TURBINE
Visit: windturbinecarriedbywheels.weebly.com
ZERO-NOISE from gears and generators since they are sealed underground.
SAVES THE BIRDS AND BATS since slow-moving.
DOES NOT NEED TO OCCUPY A WIDER LANDSCAPE since the turbine can be very tall.
MAY BE LOWER-COST since it may use timber and other cheaper things.
ELUDES HURRICANE FORCE since the blades automatically close.
NO FIRE since well-cooled.
HELPS THE WIND ENERGY COMPANIES since it is FREE FOR ALL.

Few countries the wind that Denmark has. EVs work well only where there are no hills. Being all-electric is no benefit unless the electricity is generated by a clean energy source.
So what works in Denmark won’t work in a lot of other places.
It’s not that the Danes are trying harder, it’s that their situation is adapted to clean energy production.
I should move to Denmark… any need for doctorally prepared nurse practitioners?
I want to be CEO of DONG Energy.
Niiice… from all of us here at electriccarsforeveryone (dot) com we want to see more nations like this. It’s easy to dig stuff out of the ground and burn it; but it takes courage to do what the folks in Denmark are doing.
Denmark is definitely leading the way in renewable energy. Kudos for being the pioneers and an inspiration.
Belive it or not Free energy is real,But some very powerfull ppl don’t want you and me to be free from energy costs,Get a REAL working magnet motor at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Big change is comming soon!
Great video!
Free Energy is real and its here but the coverup is strong, if you are interested in a REAL free energy machine then
just search for the LT MAGNET MOTOR in the youtube video search , it is probably the ONLY working magnet
motor out there. Join the free energy revolution!!
Yeah Denmark, the solutions are there already, wind turbines in the ocean NOT oil drilling ….When will the stupidity of the USA, fed by greed, end? They paved paradise and put up a parking lot…..Meanwhile here in the states BP Oil is gushing black death into the Gulf of Mexico in a hemorrhage, NOT a spill. Who killed the electric car?
If you fly you are a hypocrite ! Better grow wings !
do you ever fly ?????
