Danish island leads the way in clean energy

Battered by winds in the waters off eastern Denmark, the picturesque island of Samsoe has broken free of its dependence on oil and gas and, thanks to devoted residents, is now powered solely by renewable energies. A former Viking stronghold with rolling hills, small villages and vast golden fields of rapeseed, Samsoe touts itself as a model to follow in the fight against global warming.
