Energy Impacts on Land

April 19, 2024

Energy infrastructure, from extraction sites to transmission lines, occupies and alters vast tracts of land. In this episode, Mark Mills, Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute, and Gurcan Gulen, Principal at G2 Energy Insights, discuss the extensive impacts of energy development on land. They explore how various energy processes require drilling and mining, and consider the footprint of energy transportation systems. The conversation also delves into strategies to minimize these impacts while meeting energy needs.
