Necessity Series

On August 29th, The Guardian reported on the billions of dollars rich countries such as the United States spend on false technological solutions to the climate crisis. For many scientists, the government subsidizing nuclear power is one notorious example.

On this episode of the The Old Mole Variety Hour, I talk with physicist M. V. Ramana about his new book, "Nuclear Is Not the Solution: The Folly of Atomic Power in the Age of Climate Change." Ramana is a physicist and professor of public policy at the University of British Columbia. We discuss the arguments that he lays out in the book and what it means to work for a truly sustainable energy system. Ramana is also featured in Atomic Bamboozle: The False Promise of a Nuclear Renaissance. We will both be part of a webinar panel on September 30th following a month of free online screenings of the film on Eventive by the Sierra Club.

If you haven't heard, I have a new film in the works called The Palestine Exception! We're in the middle of crowdfunding and could really use your help! Please consider donating and sharing our campaign with your friends and family.

The Palestine Exception takes the audience through the four seasons of the academic year 2023-2024, a year when the eruption of violence in Israel-Palestine set off events on US college campuses that dramatically challenged the stranglehold of pro-Israel and Zionist narratives in academia.

Our director, Jan Haaken, had the opportunity to discuss DEMON MINERAL with director Hadley Austin for The Old Mole Variety Hour. DEMON MINERAL will be screened on the second night of the International Uranium Film Festival here in Portland at the First Unitarian Church. I hope to see you there!
