Solartopia Green Power and Wellness Hour – 07.28.16

HILLARY v. TRUMP & the CARBON TAX ROAD TO SOLARTOPIA

Our superb guest is the great CHARLIE KOMANOFF, pioneer of the carbon tax and one of the world’s leading experts on the realities of our energy system.

We start with an in-depth look at strategies and pitfalls in the presidential campaign.  Did Bernie really win the primaries?  Can Hillary beat Trump?  Is it actually a fight between “Mussolini and Margaret Thatcher”?  Did the Dems steal it fro Bernie, and will the GOP now steal it from Hillary?

We then go deep on the German transition from King CONG (Coal, Oil Nukes & Gas) to Solartopia.  Charlie shows that taxing carbon is at the core of our survival.  And that the German decision to shut nukes and move away from fossil fuels has actually CUT carbon emissions rather than raise them, as industry apologists are trying to say.

We further talk about the amazing success of bicycle use in New York and other cities where bike activism has had a huge positive impact, a movement Charlie helped create.

Charlie is a brilliant, cogent and important guest.  Don’t miss this show!!!
