Renewable energy, batteries, and electrolysis for clean hydrogen are all on powerful learning curves, getting cheaper at eye-popping rates & making climate mitigation more of an opportunity than an obligation, says Climate Tracker's energy strategist.
Wow, I didn't realize how much I needed this conversation...A good pairing with the rant on economist pundits episode. Thanks, Dave, for your fantastic work.
Definitely need a transcript of this one David. Bond is important but with his accent he is very hard to understand. Thanks again for all your great work David. Your site is the most important and very best site around for environmental and climate news.
thanks for all your great work Dave - I look forward to every new episode! SO GOOD to get some positive news!! I am still reeling from the IPCC report.
Steve Beck M.S. In Biden's bill he mandates, with a penalty, that utilities increase by 4%/yr their renewable (Solar Electric and Wind power) power for the next 7 years. Manchin opposes the mandate!
Now, what can be offered Manchin and Sinema that they can't turn down? Godhood? And, that reminds me of the Roman Emperor who remarked at a critical point, I feel I'm becoming a god.
Yes, everyone, I will eventually offer a transcript of this episode! Takes some time & work though ...

Not a fan of talky things like podcasts will you be providing a transcript?
Word.
Need to re-listen and re-read today, after Manchin has sealed his spot in historic infamy

I still come back and listen to this one every so often when I need a macro positivity fix.
Many thanks for this, David! Very interesting. I will need to share this with some faculty and consultants.
Fabulous conversation, thank you!
Thanks - I needed that. Great discussion and indeed well timed, given the fine mess we're in at the moment.
I suggest you add LinkedIn to the share options - there's an active energy & climate community there.
Great episode! Can you provide a link to the Oxford paper?

What I meant (20 minutes ago) is (Biden's bill) increases utilities' total power by 4%/yr to Solar Electric and Wind power.

Thanks for this! I am in fact cheered. Go Biden!
