The New Map: Energy, Climate, and the Clash of Nations | Daniel Yergin | Energy Seminar

On the very eve of publication, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Daniel Yergin shares the themes of his new book and how they relate to current challenges. At a time of global crisis, the world is being shaken by the collision of energy, climate change and the clashing power of nations. Out of this tumult, Daniel Yergin, global energy expert and master storyteller, draws the new map of energy and geopolitics. Controversial fracking technology has enabled the “shale revolution” in oil and gas which almost overnight has made the United States the world’s number one energy powerhouse. Simultaneously, concern about climate change is driving an energy transition in the search for a low-carbon future. World politics is also being upended, as a new cold war develops between the United States and China and the rivalry grows more dangerous with Russia, which is pivoting east toward Beijing. Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping are converging both on energy and in opposing America's role in the world, as China projects its power and influence in all directions. The map of the Middle East, which was laid down after the First World War, is being challenged, while the region has been stunned by the recent oil price collapse. All of this has been made starker and more urgent by the coronavirus pandemic. On the eve of the U.S. presidential election, Daniel Yergin takes the reader on a riveting and timely journey across this new map, illuminating the great issues of geopolitics and energy in our era of rising political turbulence and pointing to the profound challenges that lie ahead. The New Map can be ordered online from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshop.org, and Apple. Speaker bio Daniel Yergin is a highly respected authority on energy, international politics, and economics.
