Tony’s guest on the Thursday Buzz is UW Public Affairs Professor Greg Nemet, who sees Trump’s rollback of clean energy policies as a strategic misstep, likely leading to higher energy prices for consumers and imperiling US competitiveness-without any real justification.

Nemet portrays Trump’s energy approach as short-sighted: prioritizing fossil fuels, undercutting renewables and jeopardizing US leadership in clean energy innovation.

Nemet authored “How Solar Became Cheap: A Model for Low-Carbon Innovation“, in June 2019. The book has been translated into Chinese and a second edition, “Pathway to a Solar-Centric Economy“, was released in July.
