About this episode

Hannah Ritchie, deputy editor of Our World in Data, joins Scott Galloway to examine the new global energy race. They discuss whether AI’s power demands are being overstated, how China built its clean-energy advantage, and why the United States risks falling behind on electrification. Plus, Hannah explains why the climate outlook is more hopeful (and more complicated) than the headlines suggest. Check out Hannah’s Substack, By the Numbers, here. Learn more about your ad choices.
