Summary
On August 16th, The Wright Report continues its incisive examination of Dirty Green Energy. Host Bryan Dean Wright delves into the hidden environmental and ethical concerns surrounding batteries, a key component of the solar and wind energy systems. Wright's investigation reveals a story far more complex and concerning than the green promises often made. The discussion is so extensive that it needs to be split into two parts. This episode focuses on the minerals inside the batteries, with the manufacturing process to be tackled in the next brief. Discover the untold story of the costs of renewable energy at The Wright Report on Substack.
