Part 2. ** In Thai Language ** Discusses the tendency of official load forecasting to predict demand that fails to materialize, leading to over-construction and high economic burdens passed to consumers. Covers health and environmental impacts of EGAT coal power plants at Mae Mot, Lampang. Shows the destruction to fisheries and local subsistence lifestyles brought by the Pak Mun dam in Isaan. Exposes myth that new power plant construction is essential now to prevent power outages -- since currently installed capacity exceeds peak demand by about 30% -- enough extra that it is not necessary to build new power plants for another 10 years. Discusses process by which land is purchased in advance by power companies, hand-outs are given by power plant developers, but impacts and plans are not revealed and there is no meaningful public participation process. Interviews NGO leaders who bring villagers to visit other communities impacted by powerplants. Discusses need to reform power planning process to change the upstream process so that unnecessary power plants are not built. Ends with audio of EGAT commercial "there won't be a day electricity stops" but with visuals of pollution and people with oxygen masks from respiratory illness brought on by pollution from coal power plants.
