How to silence: The advent of “green” energy in Crete

A co-production of the Pan-Cretan Network against the Industrial Renewable Energy Sources and the Polites TV (TV by the Citizens) about the recent invasion of industrial “green energy” sources in Crete. The video deals with the seizure of vital space against the primary production section (agriculture- animal husbandry) and the huge consequences on the human and natural landscape. It refers to the uncontrollable and without any previous planning for the positioning of the Renewable Energy Sources parks, even on protected areas, with one and only intention: the profits of the companies from the energy sale, in the name of an uncertain and illegitimate “development”. The citizens of Crete resist, organize and fight against the infringement of their land in any possible way. For the creation of the movie archive videos were given by IndigoView (Th. Papadoulakis) and the web tv Polites TV. Extracts from the movie “Apopigadi: today it’s us, tomorrow it will be you” as well as different relevant plans and photos from the web were also used. Music abstracts: Stelios Petrakis: “Voreia Monopatia” ( Northern Paths) S. Xarhakos- K. Kindynis- N. Xylouris: “Pos na sopaso” (How could I silence myself)
