Proof the Energy Future Is Here

Proof the Energy Future Is Here

We’re now in the 2020s. Many of the tropes about this era from films and literature may not have come true, but there’s a lot happening around us that does feel futuristic.

And this week, we are offering up proof that we are living in the energy future — right now.

Shayle and Stephen are each going to pick a use of technology that once seemed futuristic, but is now a reality.

We’re also going to choose a technology that we thought would arrive but now, but is still seemingly off into the future.

What’s your pick? Let us know on Twitter. Follow @InterchangeShow, @shaylekann & @stphn_lacey and send comments about the show.
