He has a proven track record in communicating sustainability issues through print. He has published a number of books mainly targeted at the practical “person on the street”; with two of his most recent publications being "Domestic Solar Energy: A Guide for the Homeowner" and "Fuel Cell Projects for the Evil Genius".
 
 
 
Danish Climate Advocates chose to use the medium of film and the structure of a series of interviews with several wellknown Danish climate experts to offer suggestions for climate change solutions. Their basic question was, ‘Could Denmark be carbon neutral by 2025?’ This ambitious project became a short film entitled Denmark 2025. The title was chosen as all the climate experts interviewed agreed that it would be possible for Denmark to be carbon neutral by 2025.
