Solving for Climate

Kingsmill Bond, an Energy Strategist at RMI and former city analyst, shares his optimistic vision for the energy transition. He argues that we peaked in fossil fuel demand a decade ago and predicts a fossil-free future in just five years. Bond challenges misconceptions around renewable costs, drawing parallels to past tech shifts. He discusses China’s leading role in electrification, the financial sector’s rapid shift toward renewables, and calls for crucial actions against climate change, including ending fossil fuel subsidies.

Hannah Ritchie and Rob Stewart are fascinated by solutions to the climate crisis and the innovators, entrepreneurs and scientists behind them. They want to shine the spotlight on the people working tirelessly to change the narrative on the climate crisis to show that there's brilliant stuff going on out there, and that all isn't lost.Subscribe to the feed now to listen to the first two episodes when they drop next Thursday 7th November.
