  • Standing in their cradles are three members of a National Grid Live-line electricity cable crew, protected in a conductive cage beneath the electricy cables that they maintaining. We see the sagging cables stretching to distant electricity pylons and the three human figures standing like astonauts in their protective cradles. Huge structure of girders and relays are behind them and they wear safety clothing allowing them to work comfortably inside the electrical field at close range with gloved hands.

  • Moving steadily 100 feet (8 metres) along a live-line electricity cable, a National Grid maintenance worker protected in a conductive cage, proceeds to the next 'separator' that holds the high-voltage cables from touching each other. From the ground we see the sagging cables stretching to a distant electricity pylon and two yellow cages, one large in the foreground where we see the human figure standing like an astonaut, and the other cage out of focus, a greater distance away but all dwarfed by the huge structure of girders and relays. Wearing clothing bonded to the conductor, the lineman can work comfortably inside the electrical field at close range with gloved hands.

  • From the State Route 58 that makes its way through the Mojave Desert, we see just a few of the hundreds of wind turbines of the Tehachapi Pass Wind Farm. Spinning blades are seen close up, their pylon legs and towers secured into the ground by concrete and others on the distant hill sides, a multitude of white turbine blades. Development in the Tehachapi Pass began in the early 1980's and now is one of California's largest Wind resource areas, that generates electricity for other parts of the state. The area has multiple generations of wind turbine technology installed, including both single and double blade turbines, as well as the more modern three blade horizontal axis design. The older generation turbines generate kilowatts, and the modern turbines installed generate up to 3 megawatts, depending on the specific turbine and manufacturer.

  • Spinning turbine blades of the Wind farm near the Cornish town of Delabole in England are blurred against fast-fading light. We barely see the three blades as they revolve to produce electricity for the national grid. First operational in mid December 1991 they were a very controversial project with locals who saw them as a blot on their familiar c though it’s permission went ahead nonetheless. The 10 turbines operated by Windelectric are carefully positioned in existing hedge lines about 270 m apart and have an annual output of about 12 million Kw hours, which equals 1 years consumption by 2700 average homes (a small town). To produce the same amount of electricity by conventional means, about 2000 tonnes of oil or 5000 tonnes of coal would have to be burnt each year, this has a Co2 offset of 4,475 tonnes.

  • A young boy in a field plays with a ewe and chickens at Drusillas Park Zoo. He reaches down to the ground to see if the chickens behind a wire fence will come nearer while the ewe is held tight by a farm hand. Educating the young with hands-on experiences help the urban to understand the nature of farming and the sources of their food. But after this contact with livestock, the boy needs to wash his hands thoroughly as the risk of infections such as E.coli are significant – as has been discovered in other park zoos and farms. Cattle and sheep are the main carriers of E.coli O157 so hand washing using warm water and soap is an important and effective control. It is recommended that washing after working with or touching animals, their dung, manure, slurry or sewage. E.coli O157 can live for some months in the soil.

  • Electricity cables stretch into early morning mist above Swanscombe, Kent, London England.

The cables disappear into the winter fog creating a Sci-Fi scene of 21st technology. Diagonally, the cables travel across the picture but they are part of a line of 542 pylons that have already crossed 110 miles of English countryside, carrying 40,000 Volts along this network of aluminium cables from Dungeness coal-fired power station to West Ham sub station in London's East End - to power the West End's high energy supply demands.
