Oh, how much I've been anticipating and hoping for such a factual, science based discussion of the growing crescendo of challenges we face today and in the onrushing future. Thank you, Nate.
Thx for attempting to keep my brain n gear (relatively) by your dedicated work/inspiring perspective. But I am daunted by podcast proliferation. i (usually) can read faster than speak. I can't even keep up with Brian Czech's weekly podcasts. I'm not asking for transcripts, but I anticipate potential overload absorbing all of this great new stuff.
Nate, your work has had a profound impact on my life and I want you to know how excited I am to see you lean into this next chapter. I’ll be following along keenly, and I’m truly looking forward to seeing where this goes.
I stumbled on one of Nate's Earth Day talks back in 2015, any of which I would recommend and which got me thinking in a totally different way. It's worth your time to look at Living in the Future's Past (video), the Human Predicament course Reality101-UMN Nexus One (channel on YouTube) and others. But more immediate is The Great Simplification. My mission is to make this more widespread than a Justin Bieber music video.
After watching the Berman presentation, the next step is missing, the use of nuclear energy, particularly the new lever iv small modular reactors which have the capacity to provide process heat that can replace fossil fuels. Thoughts on the implications?
Thanks Nate - always look forward to your discussions and insights. Here's a problem I have though with one of your guests: Richard Gephardt has been a shill for the coal industry for a very long time. VERY. https://publicintegrity.org/environment/the-climate-lobbyists/ He has ZERO interest in the "public's interest," that is my conclusion after many years of following his career. Ugh. Mr. "Clean Coal" is what he will be remembered for -- not good!

Wow, nobody could ask for a more insightful and compelling podcast host! Thanks for pulling this together Nate

So glad you’re doing this, Nate. Looking forward to the conversations!

I'd like to be able to download the files for offline listening.
