The Intelligence is a new podcast from The Economist. This week, we look at the color of hydrogen used in energy transition plans. We also examine whether South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa should be impeached. And our obituaries editor reflects on his lifelong mission to educate himself and the public about wonders.
South Africa’s leader says a pile of cash stashed in a sofa represents no wrongdoing. The outcome of an investigation could be the undoing of his presidency and his party. We examine Britain’s hydrogen-economy plans as representing the tradeoffs that many countries will face. And remembering Jay Pasachoff, the world’s foremost expert on and exponent of eclipses.
