Is There a Difference Between Community Based and Government-Driven?

We live in a time of extreme weather events and after a sobering sixth assessment report was recently published by the IPCC on the physical science basis of climate change, the question of what is going to fuel the future has never been more urgent. The evolution of energy has changed both human and natural history in significant ways and yet our future is not preordained and there is great potential to redefine society’s relationship with energy. 

In this episode Susan speaks to Ketan Joshi, a prolific writer, analyst, and communications consultant whose focus is on clean energy and climate change. Ketan has previously worked in climate and energy for private companies and government agencies, and now writes about the front lines of climate and energy battles around the world. Ketan is based in Oslo and he is also the author of Windfall: Unlocking a fossil free future, which was published in September 2020.
