Show Notes

A listener letter dives deep into climate despair and tough questions about our future, Newark's historic airport terminal gets an all-electric makeover, and a Canadian teenager fails a driving test because their Tesla was deemed "too high tech." Plus, Norway now boasts more EV charging plugs than fuel nozzles, and we break down what that means for the rest of the world.

We also dig into air quality data, Saskatchewan's forest policies, and whether negative emissions like BECCS can play a role in climate solutions. As always, the Lightning Round brings you the latest clean energy headlines—from BYD's new e-Bus platform to rooftop solar in Puerto Rico, geothermal startups, and the steep adoption curve of EVs.
