As part of our ongoing partnership with the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, we spoke with former Secretary of State George P. Shultz, Distinguished Fellow and Chair of the Energy Policy Task Force at Hoover, about the changing international landscape and America's role in it.

He says we are on the cusp of two very important revolutions:

1. Fracking: Technology has opened up natural gas reserves and crude oil reserves in the US which will be a boon to our economy and security.

2. Research & Development: A significant number of first-class scientists and engineers are working on alternative energy.
