Nuclear is Not the Solution to the Climate Crisis! w/ M.V. Ramana (G&R 311)

Green & Red: Podcasts for Scrappy Radicals

The climate crisis has propelled nuclear energy back into fashion. Its proponents argue we already have the technology of the future and that it only needs perfection and deployment. The new book by M.V. Ramana, “Nuclear Is Not the Solution,” demonstrates why this sort of thinking is not only naïve but dangerous. In our latest episode, we talk about nuclear energy not being the solution to the climate crisis with author and scientist Dr. M.V. Ramana. Bio// M. V. Ramana is Professor and Simons Chair in Disarmament, Global and Human Security at the School of Public Policy and Global Affairs (SPPGA), University of British Columbia. He is also Graduate Program Director of the Master of Public Policy and Global Affairs (MPPGA) program.
