episode ‘Republican’ Green energy fantasies and casualties with CFACT Analyst Bonner Cohen cover

Beskrivelse

CFACT Analyst Bonner Cohen joins the program to discuss what he calls the “Republican” green energy fantasies driving costly energy policies despite mounting economic and environmental concerns. Cohen examines the political push behind subsidized wind and solar projects, the strain on the electric grid, rising costs to taxpayers and consumers, and the growing list of casualties ranging from lost farmland to weakened domestic energy reliability. He also shares why critics believe both parties have underestimated the long-term consequences of rapid green energy mandates and what policy changes could restore balance to America’s energy future.
