Energy Options Explained: Coal & Gas, Renewables and Nuclear


Listen Later

We've made it to ten episodes! Look at us, who would've thought? Last week we covered the history of climate policy in Australia and this week we're delving a little deeper into the great energy debate, focusing on our three main options for electricity production: coal & gas, renewables and nuclear. We weigh up the pros and cons of each, judging them by three main factors- their affordability, reliability and environmental impact. Jess sings a song, Sarah ponders the physics of catching gas and Zara reminisces on the Simpsons- it's all happening, you don't want to miss it!

As always, check out our website for a list of all the sources we reference throughout the ep, as well as a few extras!
