Daniel Yergin has advised 4 different Presidents (Clinton, Bush, Obama and the first Trump administration). He’s also a Pulitzer-Prize winning author and energy expert and the vice chair at S&P Global. Nayeema asks Yergin: when will this oil crisis end? Is every election – and war – priced at the pump? And what’s the history – and future – of our dependence on fossil fuels? Is the energy transition … still transitioning?
Also on the agenda: the Strait of Hormuz nightmare scenario, AI data centers on outer space, how we’ll move in 20 years, why the energy transition is metal-intensive (hello, copper) and whether we may be in a simulation.
