Episode 86 of the Common Weal Policy Podcast

You can download the episode directly here.

This week, Craig Dalzell is joined by Keith Baker, member of Common Weal's Energy Working Group, to discuss the ongoing campaign to revolutionise Scotland's energy sector. They discuss the campaign for a Scottish Energy Development Agency, the revitalised interest in a National Energy Company, how these agencies would link together in a Green New Deal Scotland and how it could be paid for via the Scottish National Investment Bank. Finally, they discuss the news of organisations in Scotland divesting their pension funds from fossil fuels and how this could be leveraged to help with Scotland's energy revolution.
