Listen "The Case for Nuclear Power"
Episode Synopsis
James B. Meigs joins City Journal senior editor Steven Malanga to discuss the limitations of renewable energy and the need to expand nuclear technology as a source of clean and reliable electricity.
For nearly four decades, environmental activists have opposed nuclear power in favor of “green” energy. But as Meigs writes in the Winter 2019 Issue of City Journal, “nuclear power is finding new pockets of support around the world.”
Meigs is the former editor of Popular Mechanics and cohost of the How Do We Fix It? podcast.
