2 OCT 2024 · Coal plants may be the missing link to powering a nuclear energy future. The Department of Energy recently identified hundreds of coal power plants that could increase nuclear capacity in the U.S. to more than 250 gigawatts (GW). The existing fleet has a combined capacity of 95 GW and supplies half of the nation's emissions-free electricity.
The transition would also bring tangible benefits to energy communities with additional jobs, new economic activities, and improved environmental conditions.

25 SEP 2024 · Wind and solar are the ideal renewable energy sources, but they have one big problem: reliability. However, the sun doesn't always shine, and the wind doesn't always blow. Therefore, renewable energy needs batteries to store the excess energy generated by wind and solar energy for dark and stormy days and nights.
Battery storage technology is on the cusp of becoming practical, but it's not quite there yet. T. On today's show, our host, Dr. Katherine Johnson, will discuss the role of batteries in clean energy and whether there is an Energizer Bunny on the horizon for renewable energy technologies.

18 SEP 2024 · Concerns about climate change have created a new psychological issue: climate anxiety. Eco-anxiety, also known as climate anxiety, is a chronic fear and distress about environmental issues and climate change. It can cause a range of symptoms, including depression.
In 2018, surveys conducted in the United States found that between 21% and 29% of Americans said they were "very" worried about the climate. This trend has led to a rise of "good grief" therapy groups and eco-chaplains.
Our host, Dr. Katherine Johnson, will discuss how climate anxiety is overblown as climate information is often misleading or just wrong.

11 SEP 2024 · Since the Paris Climate Accords, energy advocates have been pushing governments to agree to aggressive climate goals.
Although significant progress has been made in developing and deploying some of these technologies, deployment of all these technologies is still not happening as fast as needed to reach 2030 targets. In addition, the technologies risk facing raw material and labor shortages and lengthy permitting procedures.
On today's show, our host, Dr. Katherine Johnson, will discuss how the energy transition is falling behind as only a few climate policies have led to reduced emissions.

21 AUG 2024 · Trees have been described as the "lungs" of the Earth. Besides shading us on hot days, trees store carbon, create diverse habitats, and beautify our Earth. However, while carbon offsets to plant trees are going in popularity, recent studies suggest that we don't have the right kind of trees or enough of them to meet these lofty goals.
On today's show, our host, Dr. Katherine Johnson, will discuss how trees are helping utilities reduce energy usage, but the best approach is to leave trees alone.

7 AUG 2024 · More than 200 companies are failing to meet their net-zero pledges because these pledges are unrealistic and unattainable. Air New Zealand was one of the most recent companies to admit that it can't meet these goals because "there are so many levers outside of our control."
But the real issue is there is no agreed upon definition of "net zero." How is "net" calculated, and are those estimates accurate or simply aspirational?
On today's show, our host, Dr. Katherine Johnson, will discuss the confusion and surroundingg "net zero" pledges.

10 JUL 2024 · The European Union (EU) presents itself as a decarbonization pioneer. Its ambitious policies want to transform Europe into the first climate-neutral continent by 2050. But the recent elections, combined with the growing “green backlash,” may now squash many of those plans.
Are the European election results a harbinger of pushback in the US? The tides are already turning with the Supreme Court’s recent ruling against the Chevon Defense, which allowed the EPA to intervene in state policies.
What will the November 5 election results mean to electrification policies across the US?
