What does energy have to do with you and me? Beyond the light switches and gas pumps, energy is connected with aspects of our lives that are closest to our hearts - from food, water and land to issues of justice and access.
Through this first season, we speak to five friends across different fields and continents to explore the idea that energy is about far more than just climate and carbon, and why it matters.
