    Master storyteller and veteran journalist Alex Chadwick takes us inside the energy policies of the Democratic and Republican presidential nominees and examines how the outcome of November's election might shape the country's energy future.

    BURN also highlights:

    --a referendum initiative in Michigan that proposes a constitutionally mandated 25 percent renewable energy standard

    --the fracking controversy in Pennsylvania's natural gas-rich "Marcellus Shale" region

    This program is part of a series on energy called BURN: An Energy Journal.
