Episode notes

Fossil fuel dependent economies represent almost ne third of the world's population. They are a fifth of global greenhouse gas omissions. Success or their failure has massive implications for how they perform in the energy transition. Paternts: We don't know how this is going to play out, particularly if there is a speedier than expected transition that leaves a lot of countries ill equipped to deal with it.

England’s National Health Service is preparing to scrape the medical histories of 55m patients into a database it will share with third parties, and dozens of American companies that suspended political contributions after the US Capitol attack are sitting on $28m in unspent cash. Plus, the FT’s senior energy correspondent, Anjli Raval, explains how fossil fuel-dependent economies are vulnerable as the world shifts away from oil and gas in order to hit 2050 emissions targets.
