The climate crisis vs. the energy crisis

The International Energy Agency says we’re experiencing the first global energy crisis. But the United Nations says we’re also falling way short of meeting our climate goals and need to do more to reduce our demand for fossil fuels. We’ll talk about a pair of reports and what they mean for the clean energy economy. Plus, will Twitter become a free-for-all hellscape? And guest host Andy Uhler and Kai make a bet.

Here’s everything we talked about today:

• World Energy Outlook 2022 – Analysis from the International Energy Agency
• UN emissions report: “World falls ‘pitifully short’ of meeting climate goals” from The Washington Post
