    Episode #3: War, AI, and our Clean Energy Future w/ Jasmine Blust

    Are we really prepared for an energy crisis? 🌍💡 In my latest podcast episode, my friend and current master’s student at Stanford, Jasmine Blust sheds light on the fragility of fossil fuel supply chains amidst global conflicts. With rising gas prices and geopolitical tensions, it’s crucial to consider the volatility of our energy sources. Jasmine emphasizes the importance of moving toward renewable energy to ensure sustainability and energy independence. She shares insights from her journey in energy consulting and how we can leverage domestic resources for a more resilient energy future. Transitioning to renewables doesn’t have to be a burden - it may be our saving grace. The conversation dives deep into policies like the Jones Act that hinder our progress and the urgent need for reform. We talk Iran, China, and Taiwan to evaluate the geopolitics of energy in our world. We discuss American policies from the federal government and in states like California, Virginia, and Vermont to dig into our energy future here at home. If you enjoy the nuts and bolts of policymaking, you’ll love listening to all Jasmine has to share. She has a wealth of knowledge on the subject that I found super enlightening. Make sure you tune in to capture the full conversation! You can find the show on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube! I’ll send each episode out here in the newsletter or you can toggle over to the Across the Aisle Podcast tab on the home page. Thanks for listening - I hope you enjoy!
