Episode 5: Energy Security. Who turned out all the lights?
It’s no secret that finding and keeping resources has been the central driver for most, if not all, wars, and exploits. More specifically, the hunt for power in all shapes and forms is what fuels the political, cultural, and economic worlds we live in. Oil and gas, hydro, wind, solar, nuclear, and more- each has benefits, but also costs. Join us as Michael and Kate discuss energy scarcity, the balance between traditional and green energy, and where everyone stands as we move into an era of greater energy insecurity.
