Mark Mills: Dramatic "Recoupling" to Oil and Commodities

For the past ten years or more, Western governments deluded themselves into thinking they could transition away from fossil fuels. However, Mark Mills, Executive Director of the National Center for Energy Analytics, explains the facts and science about how misguided this belief was and, how today, we are now witnessing a vast "recoupling" of perceptions back to the vital importance of not just oil, but a whole host of critical commodities and raw materials for the functioning of our modern global economy. From the enduring dominance of oil to the skyrocketing electricity requirements of data centers, Mills exposes the disconnect between green policies and real-world energy needs. Mills and Financial Sense's Jim Puplava explore geopolitical tensions over critical materials, the backlash against data center construction, and why the future of both technology and energy depends on facing uncomfortable truths.
