The United States is moving in two different directions on energy.  While the Trump administration moves to shore up the ailing coal industry, new renewable energy installations are announced all the time. 

Robert Arthur Stayton says the political bickering over energy and carbon overshadows (pun intended) the move toward solar power. 

He points up the ongoing move in his book Power Shift: From Fossil Energy to Dynamic Solar Power

Book and interview are from 2015, but still timely and relevant today.  We return to the interview here.
