Why The Transition To Clean Energy Is Happening A Lot Faster Than People Realize

At the recent World Economic Forum in Davos, there was a lot of talk about the need to change the world's energy usage in order to address climate change.

On the latest Odd Lots episode, we speak with journalist and analyst Gregor Macdonald, the editor of The Gregor Letter, about what's actually happening on the ground. And why the transition to renewable energy is happening fast, even in the absence of aggressive government subsidies.
