Welcome to 10-Minute Climate. The podcast powered by Beaverbrook Energy
In our first episode, Max and Tony take you through a brief history of energy, what it is, where it's come from and why they love it.
We learn that the bicycle changed everything, why we can't just stop consuming energy, and how the oil industry saved the whales (sort of).
We trace its evolution from the Industrial Revolution to the present day. We discuss the transformation of human work through machines and energy, highlighting how energy powers everything from agriculture to transportation. We explore the historical significance of oil, particularly Standard Oil’s monopoly and the shift from coal to oil, driven by innovations like the steam engine and turbine. We also discuss the vulnerability of global systems, dependent on fossil fuels, and the potential of renewable energy, such as solar power, as a more sustainable future.
