I’m Francesca Cavallo and this is Electric.

2
00:00:10.440 --> 00:00:13.360 position:25% size:50%
A podcast that will take you to amazing places.

3
00:00:13.360 --> 00:00:16.800 position:25% size:50%
where we produce one of our
most precious resources: energy.

4
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:18.160 position:25% size:50%
Oh, sorry, I've misread this.

5
00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:20.880 position:25% size:50%
Let's do that whole thing from
“the stars shine” again.

6
00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:29.200 position:25% size:50%
Each episode of Electric is dedicated
to a different source of energy.

7
00:00:29.520 --> 00:00:31.960 position:25% size:50%
Now, what's special about this podcast

8
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:34.240 position:25% size:50%
is that the script has been created

9
00:00:34.240 --> 00:00:36.480 position:25% size:50%
from a few key images,

10
00:00:36.480 --> 00:00:39.920 position:25% size:50%
because the idea is for listeners
to be able to visualize a film

11
00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:42.600 position:25% size:50%
in their heads as they listen.

12
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:44.440 position:25% size:50%
I chose to work with Enel Green Power

13
00:00:44.440 --> 00:00:46.000 position:25% size:50%
because they promised

14
00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:49.600 position:25% size:50%
to give me complete freedom
to create a show

15
00:00:49.760 --> 00:00:53.480 position:25% size:50%
that I would be comfortable putting my voice to.

16
00:00:53.680 --> 00:00:55.320 position:25% size:50%
It’s all about energy,

17
00:00:55.360 --> 00:00:58.440 position:25% size:50%
we want to listen to young people
and talk to them.

18
00:00:58.440 --> 00:01:02.520 position:25% size:50%
There are two main ideas behind it:
firstly, to get the content across,

19
00:01:02.720 --> 00:01:08.680 position:25% size:50%
but also to convey the magic
and beauty that, we think,

20
00:01:08.680 --> 00:01:10.720 position:25% size:50%
can be found in the world of energy.

21
00:01:10.720 --> 00:01:12.080 position:25% size:50%
My name is Andini.

22
00:01:12.080 --> 00:01:15.000 position:25% size:50%
I am known for my inventions

23
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:16.880 position:25% size:50%
in the alternative energy space,

24
00:01:16.880 --> 00:01:20.240 position:25% size:50%
such as a flashlight that runs off
the heat of your hand

25
00:01:20.600 --> 00:01:24.000 position:25% size:50%
and a coffee mug that harvests
the excess heat of your hot drink

26
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:25.680 position:25% size:50%
and converts it into electricity

27
00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:27.680 position:25% size:50%
so you could give your phone a boost of energy.

28
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:30.920 position:25% size:50%
My name is Xóchitl Guadalupe Cruz López,
and I’m 13 years old.

29
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:35.000 position:25% size:50%
I made a water heater using
low-cost recycled materials.

30
00:01:35.160 --> 00:01:39.080 position:25% size:50%
It uses solar power and can help both people

31
00:01:39.080 --> 00:01:41.320 position:25% size:50%
on low incomes and the environment.

32
00:01:41.360 --> 00:01:43.400 position:25% size:50%
I learned so much reading the podcast!

33
00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:45.320 position:25% size:50%
I feel like I was supposed to know that much

34
00:01:45.320 --> 00:01:47.880 position:25% size:50%
about all of these different sources of energy,

35
00:01:47.880 --> 00:01:48.880 position:25% size:50%
but I really didn't,

36
00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:52.360 position:25% size:50%
so it was a great gift that Francesca gave me.

37
00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:55.960 position:25% size:50%
To tell you the truth,
it’s been a wonderful experience so far.

38
00:01:56.000 --> 00:02:00.200 position:25% size:50%
It’s really exciting to know
that we’re recording something

39
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:03.040 position:25% size:50%
that will be heard by millions of young people.

40
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:06.520 position:25% size:50%
I think it’s very important
to use forms of energy

41
00:02:06.520 --> 00:02:08.960 position:25% size:50%
that don’t harm the environment,

42
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:13.360 position:25% size:50%
and it would be great if this could continue.

43
00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:17.400 position:25% size:50%
I think most of my generation
is very concerned with climate change.

44
00:02:17.440 --> 00:02:19.880 position:25% size:50%
I think it's really hard because in the news now

45
00:02:19.880 --> 00:02:22.560 position:25% size:50%
there is so much negative news on global warming,

46
00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:28.200 position:25% size:50%
but technology is developing at
an exponential rate the past 20, 30 years,

47
00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:30.760 position:25% size:50%
so I'm really excited to see how

48
00:02:31.040 --> 00:02:34.120 position:25% size:50%
everyone's accessibility to sustainable energy

49
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:37.800 position:25% size:50%
and the collection of it will be increased
over the next ten, 20 years as well.

50
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:41.000 position:25% size:50%
If you believe that we’re heading for catastrophe,

51
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:44.520 position:25% size:50%
indeed, there’s been a lot of talk
recently about “eco-anxiety,”

52
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:46.360 position:25% size:50%
you risk being paralyzed by pessimism,

53
00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:48.600 position:25% size:50%
when what you need
is some reasonable optimism.

54
00:02:48.640 --> 00:02:51.080 position:25% size:50%
The technology is there

55
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:54.120 position:25% size:50%
to make sure 
this planet remains wonderful.

56
00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:59.720 position:25% size:50%
Each episode of Electric is brimming with energy.

57
00:02:59.720 --> 00:03:01.840 position:25% size:50%
We gave energy to the episodes

58
00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:03.560 position:25% size:50%
and the episodes gave energy to us.
