`bosh` gives me a `x509: cannot validate certificate` — how do I fix?

Question

When I try to set my BOSH environment, I get an x509 error:

$ bosh env 192.168.50.4 lite
Fetching info:
  Performing request GET 'https://192.168.50.4:25555/info':
    Performing GET request:
      Get https://192.168.50.4:25555/info: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority

Exit code 1
