📢 "We all want a future where our air is clean and our energy is green." Check out this insightful conversation between Chris Whitehead, my former DOE Office of Energy Justice and Equity colleague, Kelly C., and me as we discuss the Biden-Harris Administration's efforts to advance #environmentaljustice and #energyjustice💡. We will only survive the climate crises by building coalitions that lead us toward a more equitable and just future.
Episode 8 - The Cleanest Electron is the One You Don't Use For this episode we were lucky enough to be joined by Kelly C. (Special Advisor for Energy and Environmental Justice, US Department of Energy) and Tony G. Reames, PhD (Tishman Professor of Environmental Justice, University of Michigan). Our discussion focused on energy justice topics, new DOE programs like REDI (and established ones like J40), and energy affordability and availability as we transition off carbon-intensive fuels. When I set these SME pairings, I am always excited for the episodes but this one really stood out for me as I have long respected Kelly and Tony for their leadership and eloquence on these critical issues. Video of the episode is available through our YouTube channel (below), and audio through the graphic below or any of the major podcast platforms.
