Welcome to Planet Forward – real dialogue on energy issues: experts, policymakers, citizens and you! This is your chance to have your voice heard on one of the biggest challenges of our times: whether we can move away from using fossil fuels and if we should, how should we do it?

Send us a video, written essay, podcast, song, etc. (see our guidelines for details). They’ll spark debate online, where site users will rate their favorites.

For inspiration, we recommend you check out our PBS TV special, and our web sequel, with Van Jones, President Obama's green jobs advisor, joining Planet Forward's Frank Sesno in a discussion of the formula for our energy future.
