Hingham Library Director Dennis Corcoran said SWITCH delivers straight answers to today’s most controversial energy questions, as energy visionary Dr. Scott Tinker travels the world, exploring leading energy sites from coal to solar, oil to biofuels, most of them highly restricted and never before seen on film.

In the film, Tinker seeks the truth from the international leaders of government, industry and academia, and then cuts through the confusion to discover a path to our energy future as surprising as it is practical.
