We speak to Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Richard Rhodes about his latest book, “Energy,” in which he chronicles the history of large-scale energy transitions and makes the case for nuclear power as a solution to the climate crisis.
After reading Rhodes i had the EXACT reaction as the following.
Data must ALWAYS win!!
"Cravens and I, for example, both encountered respected scientists, men of honesty and integrity — in my case, the Nobel laureate physicists Hans Bethe and Luis Alvarez, among others — who quietly educated us in the relative risks and benefits of nuclear energy. As a result, we both concluded, independently, that the benefits greatly outweigh the risks."
