Episode notes

In 20 20 the entire global production of energy from solar and wind was enough to supply the energy needs of all the homes in the us. Even the big oil majors are beginning to accept that and move towards that. I certainly hope it's a lot more than window dressing, because we do need to move away from a lot of use of fossil fuels as an energy source. pumping carbon into the atmosphere is not the way we want to move forward.

While the broad stock market has been plunged, energy has proven to be a rare safe haven.
