Under the Ground and Through the Air | Empowered State

Air travel currently emits over one billion tons of carbon dioxide each year—but a cleaner choice is coming. In this episode, the roadtrippers climb inside the next generation of electric planes to imagine how battery-powered flight could help save our climate. Plus, they learn how to harness the Earth's natural power through geothermal energy, and see how sustainable skyscrapers take shape.
