Within the next ten years historic investments must be made into new forms of energy production and infrastructure to stop catastrophic warming of the planet.

My research examines the contradictions and difficulties that have emerged in large-scale energy investment as the transition begins. I am also more broadly interested in the history of capitalist development and its relationship to natural resource production, as well as the impact this changing relationship has had on social life.
