NEED FOR THE TRANSCRIPTION OF A LISTENING

http://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/player/environment/energy-environment/energy-conservation.html

Happy New Year to all of you.

I яПНm trying to trascribe this video word for word but some parts are difficult for me to understand. Are you so kind to help me?? Thanks in advance. When you click on the link, please click again on the video of the picture which lasts 2.48

The passages where I need you help is:

at the beginning:

when the wind picks up? at the foot of the ..........? there are those who believe that .......... ?the future. (00.02 - 00.10)

competitive with the pass? of fuels. (00.14 - 00.16)

Scientists work at create? (00.22 - 00.24)

for this techonology is about to accomodage? (00.33 -00.34)

Researchers .....? it has to be on a large scale (01.02 01.10)

jumping gas prices are in the spite light of the search????? for something (01.20 01.25)

some farmers have been developing part of their green harvest to make a fuel called яПНяПНяПН. (01.52) but the emphasis now is on the stock and stable (01.55) left of the ground after the harvest.

The soil .......... is actually made up is something that can be taken on the ethnology with яПН.on the same way corn grain and having it turned яПН.. ?????????? (01.59 -02.10)

levels? of crisis, emergency for finding reliable alternatives ofяПН.?. fuels may have arrived (2.40-2.48)

when the wind picks up at the foot of the ROCKIES there are those who believe THEY CAN HEAR the future. (00.02 - 00.10)

competitive with FOSSIL fuels. (00.14 - 00.16)

Scientists work TO CREATE SOLAR CELLS (00.22 - 00.24)

for this techonology is about to COME OF AGE (00.33 -00.34)

Researchers HERE SAY - FOR RENEWABLE ENERGY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, it has to be on a large scale (01.02 01.10)

A JUMP IN gas prices OFTEN SPOTLIGHTS THE SEARCH FOR SOMETHING ELSE (01.20 01.25)

some farmers have been DIVERTING part of their GRAIN harvest to make a fuel called ETHANOL(01.52) but the emphasis now is on the stockS and stUBBle (01.55) left of the ground after the harvest.

The CELLULOSE THAT яПНS IN HERE AND THAT яПНS actually made up OF SUGAR IS SOMETHING THEY CAN TURN INTO ETHANOL IN THE SAME WAY ???

So sorry, made it thus far, but then the video got blocked (temporarily unavailable) - probably all of us ESL freaks trying to help you;)))).... Hope this helps at least....

Bruce, it яПНs OK - Juan explained which video to look for - it яПНs actually this one http://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/player/environment/energy-environment/energy-conservation.html in the lower right-hand corner called Alternative Energy, but it became unavailable before I could finish... So, if anyone can access it, it яПНs only the last two sentences that are unclear...

... in the same way that they яПНre currently taking their corn grain and having it turned into a fuel ... (?) ethanol. The national renewable energy lab has a plant that converts harvest leftovers and just about anything else into fuel. Proving that renewable energy technology is viable remains a struggle at least in America. Wind turbines were pioneered in the United States, but countries in Europe use them to supply more meaningful amounts of power. With the current energy situation labeled as "crisis" the urge to find reliable alternatives to fossil fuels may have arrived and for renewable energy the future may be now.

competitive with fossil fuels. (00.14 - 00.16)

Scientists work to create solar cells far more efficient than those currently яПН? (00.22 - 00.24)

for this technology is about to come of age. (00.33 -00.34)

Researchers here say for renewable energy to really make a difference it has to be on a large scale. There hasnяПНt been any great sense of urgency (01.02 01.10)

a jump in gas prices often spotlights the search for something else to keep all those cars going(01.20 01.25)

some farmers have been diverting part of their grain harvest to make a fuel called Ethanol (01.52) but the emphasis now is on the stalks and stubble (01.55) left on the ground after the harvest.

The cellulose thatяПНs in here that actually is made up of sugars is something that they can turn into ethanol in the same way that they яПНre currently taking their corn grain and having it turned into a fuel grade ethanol.
