Let’s start with a seemingly basic but crucial subject in the context of fighting climate change. Is it possible to power our planet with 100% renewable? If so, how do we do that and how can we accelerate the transition? How do we stop subsidising fossil fuels? How can we – me and you – support the transition to clean energy worldwide? Anne-Sophie and Anna discuss renewable policies, changes in the German energy landscape and California’s ambitious green targets. 

Guests: 

• Rana Adib, Executive Secretary at REN21,
• Hans-Josef Fell, President of Energy Watch Group, Ambassador for 100% renewables, Author of the draft Renewable Energy Sources Act, 
• Daniel Kammen, Professor of Energy at University of California, Berkeley, Director at RAEL.
