Yesterday we presented Part 1 of our interview with resource & political expert David Knight Legg.

It was one of the most thought-provoking conversations we’ve yet had about the criticality of energy to the economy & geopolitical power — and the many dangers of getting national energy policy wrong.

Here in Part 2, David returns to share with us the mega-trend that he thinks will most define the next 30 years: the raising of 1.5 billion people out of energy poverty.

That’s nearly 1 in 4 people alive on the planet today.

The scale of increasing demand this will place on the world’s commodities, especially fuels, is so large it’s hard to comprehend.
