In this episode, I talk with Bill Moyer, founder of the Reconnect
America campaign, about the huge, untapped potential of U.S.
railroads to support the clean energy transition. Bill makes the
case that our privately owned rail system, focused on short-term
profits, is missing out on big public benefits—like shifting
freight from roads to rails, reducing emissions, and even using
rail corridors to carry high-voltage transmission lines for
renewable energy.
