One of the most common and versatile forms of energy in the world is natural gas.

Natural gas is used for cooking, heating, electrical production, and powering vehicles. 

Entire economies are dependent on its consumption, and others are dependent on its production. 

As such, it has become one of the most important commodities in the world.

Learn more about natural gas what it is, where it comes from, and how it's used on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Depending on how you define it, there are about 193 to 200 countries in the world today. 

Over the last 100 years, that number has been constantly increasing. Sometimes, the number goes up a lot in short periods of time, and other times, there might be decades between the creation of a new country. 

There hasn’t been a new country created since 2011, but it is entirely possible that we might make new additions to the list of nations before this decade is out. 

Learn more about the world’s next possible countries on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In the 1950s and 1960s, the British Intelligence community was shocked by a series of high-profile defections to the Soviet Union. 

These defections proved to be devastating to British intelligence during the Cold War and may have led to the death or imprisonment of hundreds of undercover British operatives. 

These defections changed Western intelligence gathering forever in ways that can still be felt today.

Learn more about the Cambridge Five and how they influenced the Cold War on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The authors of two nonfiction books say they were moved to change the world after finding inspiration in nature. First, Robin Wall Kimmerer's book The Serviceberry explores themes including economies of abundance and reciprocity in the natural world – similar to those addressed in her hit book Braiding Sweetgrass. In today's episode, Kimmerer joins NPR's Ari Shapiro for a conversation that touches on biomimicry, little free libraries, and what nature can teach us about human economies. Then, we hear from author Trish O'Kane. She says she didn't pay much attention to nature until Hurricane Katrina destroyed her home. Shortly after, she heard the call of a red cardinal, which launched her interests in ornithology and education. Her memoir Birding to Change the World draws connections between the world of birds and the author's own political activism. In today's episode, O'Kane talks with Here & Now's Robin Young about her early forays in ornithology, finding news in our backyards, and a special program of bird-related songs based on the book.

• Hallogallo from Neu!, basically one of the best songs there is. 

Notes

• There is a lot written about Bessie, including some wonderful children's books. The best thing I read about her was in Ann Farrar (a journalist and biker herself)'s book Hear Me Roar: Women, Motorcycles, and the Rapture of the Road.
