Take Back Your Power takes us on a journey of revelation and discovery, as we question the benefits and risks of "smart" meters and grid technology, as well as corporate practices of tapping private information and eroding our rights in the name of "green".
Utility companies are racing to replace electricity, gas and water meters worldwide with new generation "smart" meters at an unprecedented rate. With compelling insight from insiders, researchers, government representatives, lawyers, doctors, and environmentalists, Take Back Your Power investigates claimed benefits and apparent risks of this ubiquitous "smart" grid program. Transparency advocate Josh Del Sol takes us on a journey of revelation and discovery as we question corporate practices of surveillance, extortion, and causing harm in the name of "green."
Carl Katz, Director of Citizens for Safe Technology, will join us to introduce the film and there will be a short discussion and Q&A session afterwards.
