Cutting edge of the… um, ACCELERATING energy transition

Tragically, the climate crisis is accelerating faster than anyone other than science fiction writers had forecast just a few short years ago. At the same time, however, the energy transition away from fossil fuels is also accelerating much faster than predictions. Markham brings us news from the front lines, along with the context and analysis that comes from decades of journalism on the energy sectors.
