A New Beginning

Bent Svensson, a former scientist who now lives in the fjords of Norway is surprised when, while fixing some equipment near his home, he is approached by a mysterious woman who identifies herself as Fay. Bent is confused when she reacts harshly to using his equipment to preserve nearby trees for firewood, despite its negative effect on the local wildlife, leading Fay to reveal that she is a time-traveller, who has come back into the past to save humanity's future. Sceptical of her words, Bent nonetheless agrees to listen to her story.
Fay reveals that has come from the distant future of 2500, where humanity is forced to live underground in bunkers following a global ecological disaster, which devastated Earth and killed much of the population, plants and animals. Following a recent examination of the planet's atmosphere, scientists determine that the planet is set to be hit by a powerful solar flare that will wipe out all remaining life on Earth. To prevent this, teams of specialists were assigned the task of travelling into the past to locate the planet's political leaders and convince them to do whatever they could to prevent the disaster that weakened the planet's geo-magnetical fields.
However, the scientists miscalculated when in the past to conduct their mission, arriving in 2050 at the time the planet was being ravaged by ecological storms, including tornadoes in Europe, and flooding in North America. Fay, who arrived in San Francisco which has been left in ruins, discovered most of the other teams had died upon arrival; her own teammate later died after arriving, but not before passing her a data packet that can lead them to the correct time period. Rescuing another team that had arrived in the city, Fay worked to power up her time machine so it could lead her into the past.
Salvador concludes their team must travel back in time to a year where ecological problems already exist, but still can be solved. In their search they find an article about Bent Svensson who invented a biofuel based upon blue algae. They also find an article how earth got partially destroyed after a nuclear reactor exploded in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest. This event destroyed the rain forest causing to start a chain reaction in which the earth went into a nuclear winter. The team travels back in time. However, it turns out Bent had to go on retirement due to health issues. The project is now led by his son Duve. Fay must convince Bent she really is from the future, the biofuel is the only solution to save the planet and the product must go in production right away. However, everyone has some reason to manipulate things for own purposes. This might fail the rescue of earth—or not.
