The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

People know that about me.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

I'm very much an environmentalist in many ways.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

It's just that they are wrong on nuclear energy.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

energy.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

And yeah, if you get down to the energy use thing, the whole we should use less energy, it does pretty much always boil down to, well, all these people are going to have to use less.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

Okay, what happens when China wants to do AI, but we've outlawed it here because of energy use?

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

Well, we

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

we just have to get them to cooperate.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

Okay, I also want to learn how to fly by growing wings.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

So how are we going to manage that too, right?

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

And it kind of does come down to, yeah, we're just going to have to kill all the people that use too much energy or put them in prison or force them to not use as much energy.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

And oh, the countries that don't opt in, well, we just have to link arms with them and sing Kumbaya and then they'll finally understand.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

It's just, it's nonsense.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

It doesn't work until you turn the whole planet into some sort of authoritarian nightmare.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

I mean, that's the solution.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

Yeah, that's where we are now.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

We just don't let the poor countries develop.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

Yep, that's a really good point.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

The people who walk every day to go get water are not campaigning for us to use less energy, right?

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1277: Isabelle Boemeke | The Rad Future of Nuclear Electricity

It's the person sitting in their air-conditioned studio with their lights overhead so that they look good and they got their filter effect on their computer, right?
