In this episode of XTRAordinary, hosts Teague Egan and Spence sit down with esteemed journalist and author Ernest Scheyder to delve into his compelling book, *The War Below*. The book humanizes everyone involved in the high-stakes world of The Energy Transition, offering a nuanced view of both sides of the argument. Ernest provides an in-depth look at the advocates for lithium and copper mining, who aim to usher in a better world through electric energy, and those opposed, who seek to maintain peace and prevent invasive digging into the earth.
They discuss the intricate narratives and significant ramifications of shifting from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, highlighting how these changes impact global power dynamics and economic stability. Ernest shares his deep insights into the energy industry, offering a unique perspective on the challenges and opportunities that come with this global shift.
Beyond the book, the conversation expands to cover Ernest's extensive career in journalism. As a senior correspondent at Reuters, he has reported extensively on the energy sector, mining industry, and the geopolitical implications of energy policies. His experiences and stories from the field provide a rich backdrop to the discussion, shedding light on the critical issues he has covered over the years.
Join us for a thought-provoking discussion that not only highlights the critical issues surrounding energy and the environment but also provides an intimate look at the life and career of a dedicated journalist.
