Thank you to Laramie Energy and Caerus Oil and Gas for sponsoring the monthly Health and Hydrocarbons show.

Bob Boswell, CEO of Laramie Energy, joins Kim to discuss how current events have seen a swing back toward hydrocarbons. The war between Russia and Ukraine has impacted energy prices across the globe, making it clear that energy independence is essential. Germany is tapping coal for energy again. Europe is finally seeing the error of its ways. Energy prices are directly related to regulations and rules. Less regulation will result in cheaper prices.

Boswell and Kim also discuss the dark side of Green energy. Lithium mining is horribly inefficient, with 100,000 pounds of lithium mined per a 1,000 lb car battery. Electric vehicle batteries have a limited life. Most die in ten years. In Africa, cobalt mining is done by children. Listen to the full show in the second hour.
