The film highlights the misconception we hold about our extractable coal availability, unravels the social and economic costs of coal – and puts forward key questions about who this coal is benefiting thus highlights the true cost of mining and using this coal – in times of a climate emergency, food and water crisis.
The immediate solution the film highlights is efficiency and conservation – which requires a war like effort – and ends by questioning our current path of operation which is obsessed with the western concept of growth and development. India can clearly not make the same mistakes as the west, and should truly look at the energy really necessary, and live with respect for its resources and surroundings.
This film gives a new perspective to Coal in India – Addressing India’s growing energy needs, problems of energy security and Climate Change Vulnerabilities and asks the most important question our generation will confront – and the possibility of a Bright Future hinges on the answer we choose.
