Infrastructure in Real Life: Electricity

When the power goes out, it's like a record scratching and pushing our normal lives into a weird pause. For most of us, we take for granted the predictability and reliability of our power supply. We count on the infrastructure that brings us energy, but that system needs attention. ⁠⁠On this, the second episode of our Infrastructure In Real Life series, we're talking about energy, climate, jobs, and the politics of how these things intersect. We're sharing more insight from our Brookings Institute friends and can't wait to hear what you think, too. ⁠⁠Click here for our Premium content on Apple Podcasts Subscriptions.Please visit our website for full show notes and episode resources.
