18. Mike Howard | Where Does Our Energy Come From?

In this extremely timely episode, we sit down with Mike Howard, Chairman and CEO of Howard Midstream Energy Partners, to develop a deep understanding of where our energy comes from. Since we recorded this episode, the United States experienced a substantial cyberattack on of its largest fuel pipelines that should awaken the country and the world to the importance, criticality, and fragility of our energy stuff-chain. Scalable, reliable, resilient, and sustainable energy sources and infrastructure are critical to human flourishing, the modern high-tech economy, and our high-speed society. Throughout the conversation, we dive into what energy is, how oil and gas enable human flourishing, recent innovations in where we source our energy, and so much more.
