You know when the tagline of the book is “Helping Citizens Understand the Environmental and Humanity Abuses that Support “Clean” Energy it is going to be a tough discussion.
I would like to thank Ronald Stein and Todd Royal for doing the research and bringing the facts and science to the discussion. We hit on some key topics, and none of them are saying we should not go to renewables; rather let’s look at the first, second, and third order of magnitude of negative impact.

Thank you, Ronal for stopping by the podcast and I am looking forward to future discussions with you and Todd. – Stu
