The world’s thirst for more energy has led us down the path to climate change. Some politicians have said that alternatives to fossil fuels may help us reverse that, but the problem is that alternative forms of energy aren't ready on the scale we need.

Two of the people working on that project talk about their troubling conclusion, when Charlotte Talks.
