President Biden is pushing for electric vehicles as part of his climate change agenda. But how realistic is a transformation to electric cars, trucks and airplanes? If it is feasible, how long will a transition from gas to electric take and how much will it cost? George Crabtree—from the Argonne National Laboratory—is an expert on the coming electric vehicle transformation and is in a position to answer a lot of our questions. As a professor of physics and Director of Argonne's newly formed Joint Center for Energy Storage Research, he has led a cutting-edge body of research on how to advance the next-generation batteries—the sine qua non for the kind of transformation we need to affect climate change and the health of our planet.

Join us to learn about the future of electric vehicles and their potential impact on climate change.
