The Faustian Bargain of Climate Change & Why We Need Nuclear
In this video, I explore the legend of Faust and explains how the story relates to climate change. For decades Fossil fuel use has powered the development our societies, infrastructure and considerably improved the quality of life for the entire world. As a species, we are in the cross roads of deciding whether we want to continue with the situation we’ve put ourselves in. Our society is hooked on fossil fuels, and we need to change this contract before the deal is sealed.
