Atomic Rod visits theWatt Podcast

ByRod Adams

On Saturday, I had the opportunity to chat with three other people spread around North American and Europe about my favorite topic – energy. It was fun to share ideas and disputes with Ben Kenny from Canada (The Watt), Robb Worthington from the UK (Sustainable Living), and Mark Seal from Switzerland (Talk Climate Change and Green Options).

We chatted about carbon taxes, new nuclear power in the US and the UK, carbon emission limits on vehicles in the EU, oil prices, and the OECD Environmental Outlook report.

You can find the show at theWatt Podcast number 75.
