Today across the planet two familiar forces -— corporate capital and the broad left — are furiously contesting for the resources and authority to direct the mobilization necessary to restore a habitable planet in the little time that remains. The left’s energy networks are far faster to construct, far less expensive, and far more reliable than the corporate systems. Public and democratically run, they are very popular in areas where they exist. The corporate set, led by the Investor Owned Utilities, are trying to destroy these programs using their political connections and power. Bill Resnick talks to M.V. Ramana, a physicist and energy researcher, on the struggle and how the left might prevail to continue the human experiment.
