If you're concerned about people who are struggling, as far as I can tell, there's nothing more important than energy.

There's a great experiment going on right now as we've put more intermittent energy.

It's led by solar and wind onto grids. How much can you push that?

When that sun or wind go away, something has to be there immediately to back that up, to make it continue to work.

And it's brutal managing a grid that has things coming and going.

The most appropriate way to serve the poor is to make energy radically available reliably, period.

If you want to clean up the atmosphere emissions, as well as the land, the air, and the water,

you have to accelerate economic development.

If this is all true, then why the hell aren't we doing it?

We're not out of energy options. We're out of ideas.

The banner of war that's flown by the Greens is the carbon dioxide apocalypse narrative.

The best solution to that is clearly nuclear. Clearly. But the Greens,

as they're doing in Spain, as they already have done in Germany, they're anti-nuclear, which

indicates more strongly than anything else, that the story is not about carbon dioxide pollution.

It's about something else.

Music about something else. So I had the opportunity today to speak with Scott Tinker,

and I've spoken to Scott before and on a podcast,

and he was a contributing speaker at ARC and delivered one of the most popular public speeches

that we've ever put on the ARC platform on energy and the environment.

Why should you listen to this podcast? Well, there's a bunch of reasons. The most

practical is that Scott will walk you through what you need to know to basically have a schematic

understanding of the structures upon which your abundant world depends, the energy infrastructure.
