Energy for Humanity vision explained by co-founder Kirsty Gogan

ByRod Adams

Nuclear4Climate posted the below video on their YouTube channel yesterday. It features Kirsty Gogan, the Executive Director and one of three cofounders of the U.K. based civil society group Energy for Humanity.

Though there is a small issue with sound quality, I think you’ll agree that Kirsty makes a strong case for nuclear energy as a tool for solving some of the world’s biggest challenge — supplying abundant, affordable energy without producing air pollution or adding to the CO2 concentration in the atmosphere.

You can learn more about Energy for Humanity on their Manifesto page.

  2. Michael Shellenberger gives an excellent talk called “How humans save nature” and saves the nuclear talk till the end. He also mentions Molten Salt Reactors towards the end as being able to use up the waste.

    After you hear the message it leaves you thinking of course. This is worth sharing with others.
