Description

I’m pleased to welcome Ted Nordhaus to the podcast this week. Ted’s work at The Breakthrough Institute offers an intriguing and important way to think about the intersection of energy policy, society, and politics. Ted explains why he abandoned climate catastrophism, how the “Green Vortex” collapsed, and why Democrats need to unlearn old dogmas if they want to survive as a governing party.

Please listen in and check out Ted and his colleagues’ writings at The Ecomodernist on Substack.

A transcript of this discussion is available on our website.
