Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Climate Adaptation
Q: What do we do with efficiency in terms of addressing some of the demands for electricity for cooling?
The idea is that the utility is in communication with the customer to reduce the demand on the electricity grid.
Climate Adaptation
Q: Why have governments focused more on mitigation as compared to adaptation?
For a long time, the idea of adapting to climate change has been seen as giving up. There's been an effort to put all our eggs in the mitigation basket, but we need a lot more of both.
Climate Adaptation
Q: Why should our viewers care if we can adapt or not?
We have three choices. We can either mitigate, adapt or suffer. And we want to minimize how much we suffer, obviously.
Natural Gas Pipelines
Q: Do we need to build more natural gas pipelines?
We need to evaluate the necessity on a project-by-project basis, considering emissions and economic growth; while some argue for more pipelines, others call for sensible development that benefits the public interest.
Natural Gas Pipelines
Q: Why should our viewers care about gas pipelines?
Gas pipelines are essential for transporting natural gas across the country, directly affecting energy supply and safety, as well as having long-term implications on climate and environmental justice.
