  • Crazy-town centrist

    Take a listen, you won’t regret it. If you’re a climate activist, a public servant, or a regular Joe trying to better understand where oil and gas executives and organizations are coming from in an age of fast-rising global temperatures – this one’s for you.

    I found Tisha’s work through her newsletter “both of these things are true “ which perfectly sums up her dedication to tackling complex issues in all their nuance.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Persuasion Won't Shorten the Arc of Outrage
Q: What is the outlook for synthetic fuels and carbon intensity as levers in the transition?
She describes the role of e-fuels as compatible with existing infrastructure, enabling emissions reductions without wholesale replacement of current systems, and emphasizes evaluating incremental emissions reductions through carbon intensity accounting.
Persuasion Won't Shorten the Arc of Outrage
Q: How should policymakers balance decarbonization with affordability and security?
Lee highlights a trilemma where affordability, reliability, and security must be weighed together, with pragmatic use of carbon intensity metrics and gradual integration of clean fuels to avoid disruptive shifts.
Persuasion Won't Shorten the Arc of Outrage
Q: What role do social fabric and community engagement play in energy projects?
She stresses that the quality of engagement, listening, trust-building, and giving local communities real agency are crucial to making projects acceptable and durable, and that participatory capitalism can help share benefits more broadly.
Persuasion Won't Shorten the Arc of Outrage
Q: Why do you think energy is so polarized both in the US and globally?
Lee argues that energy itself is a basic necessity, but polarization arises from the political economy—who pays, who benefits, who bears the risk, and how climate decarbonization adds another layer of meaning and identity to energy choices.
What You Don’t Know About Community Buy-In
Q: What is your view on how to balance trade-offs in coalitions and ensure credible compromises?
Trade-offs should be workshoped and defended on merit, with transparent consideration of different viewpoints, so that all parties feel heard and trust is maintained even when final decisions aren't unanimous.
