Matt Frost: An alternative to climate despair

Political Economy with Jim Pethokoukis - A podcast by AEI Podcasts - Tuesdays

Decades of apocalyptic rhetoric surrounding the issue of climate change has failed to garner support for the austerity-based solutions on the table. Accordingly, Matt Frost and I discuss how a climate policy agenda centered around promoting energy abundance is a better approach to mitigating climate change than doubling down on fatalistic messages and policy proposals that would make us poorer. Matt is an environmental policy technologist and the author of the recently published The New Atlantis article, “After Climate Despair”. You can also check out the transcript of this podcast here.
