Joining Robert on the podcast this week is Dave Borlace from the Just Have a Think YouTube channel.
Dave was with us recently at our Everything Electric LONDON expo, and we just had to get him back here on the podcast.
Diving straight into how best we can tackle the climate crisis, along with the pros and cons of small nuclear reactors and off-shore and on-shore wind. We also learn what utter nonsense the WLTP range numbers of EVs are!
Robert also shares the scary fact that the area of land currently being used for golf courses in the UK, if used for renewables could more than satisfy the whole country’s energy demand, and rightly he asks “Do we want Golf or Energy?!”. Please leave your thoughts in the comments below!
Once these two get started, they really are UNSTOPPABLE! We hope you enjoy this very entertaining and enlightening chat.
