Episode description

Russia's invasion of Ukraine threw the world's energy market into chaos and added a renewed sense of urgency to the search for new sources of power. Many Western governments, including Canada's, are betting big on wind and solar, but there's also growing interest in nuclear power as a reliable and clean alternative. At the same time, many people still have questions about how safe it really is (and whether building new plants is even feasible anymore). On this episode of Free Lunch by The Peak, Dr. Chris Keefer, a Toronto-based medical doctor and founder of Doctors for Nuclear Energy, joins us to make the case for nuclear energy. ----- Links: Follow Dr. Chris Keefer on Twitter Listen to the Decouple Podcast More episodes of Free Lunch by The Peak: https://readthepeak.com/shows/free-lunch Follow Taylor on Twitter: @taylorscollon Follow Sarah on Twitter: @sarahbartnicka Subscribe to The Peak's daily business newsletter: https://readthepeak.com/b/the-peak/subscribe
