Energy & Resources power modern life, but the systems that produce, distribute, and control them are about far more than electricity, fuel, or raw materials.
They shape geopolitics, industry, cost of living, environmental damage, and the balance of dependence between nations, corporations, and ordinary people.
What keeps homes lit and economies moving is often tied to extraction, scarcity, infrastructure, and long chains of influence that remain largely invisible until prices spike, supply fails, or communities bear the damage.
This section examines how energy and resource systems reveal the deeper priorities of a society — what it chooses to fuel, what it is willing to consume, and who is left paying the price.
