I was invited to speak on a panel at the Brookings institute in DC last week. The event was coordinated by David Sandalow, who is simply brilliant in all that relates to policy about energy. His book "Freedom From Oil: How the Next President Can End the United States' Oil Addiction" is a masterpiece, and you should read and send to your favorite candidate. Just add a small note saying - "go full electric if you can, don't stop at plug-in hybrids".
Kidding aside, we are all on the same page, first let's put an electric conduit into the car, then disrupt the pricing model so that consumers use electrons to drive. And please generate the new electrons through clean renewable sources.I was on a panel moderated by Zoom's author's Vijay Vaitheeswaran, who was very gentle with me given I broke the time rules. I was asked to go for 3 minutes, and unfortunately gone a bit overboard - but the segment is probably the shortest explanation of PBP on video right now... so here goes
