    So what does the next generation have to say? In this episode of Disruption, we explore how young Albertans studying energy see its future — from green technology to traditional oil and gas. They share what attracted them to the industry, how their education has prepared them and how their internships are supplementing it. They also talk about how energy conversations — with both their peers and older generations — are changing and what they think the future holds for their own careers and the industry in general.
