Climate Cage Fight: Nuclear vs Coal in Ontario feat. Steve Aplin

Between 2005-2014 the Canadian province of Ontario phased out its
coal fired electricity generation in what some call the greatest
single greenhouse gas reduction initiative in North America to
date. It was the equivalent to taking 7 million cars off the
road. Climate benefits were accompanied by dramatic improvements
in Air Quality with smog days dropping from 53 per year to zero
once the phaseout was complete. The elephant in the room that
noone wants to talk about is the role that Nuclear Energy had in
making this historic energy transition possible. Our guest Steve
Aplin shares Ontario's example for the world as we aim for a
transition to a zero emissions energy system.
