Climate Money Ep. 7: Big Wind Faces a Big Setback. The Reasons Might Surprise You. Climate Money

- Business News
Welcome to the Episode 7 of the Climate Money Podcast.
In this episode, we look at:
Enel Energy’s $500M+ wind farm loss, and what it teaches us about energy history, tribal sovereignty, and knowing your audience
Why culture, not money, is the tide that floats all boats — or sinks them, as we’ll see
This is a particularly thorny issue so we’ve dedicated the entire episode to this topic. As always I welcome your feedback and reflections.
