In this talk, philosopher and energy expert Alex Epstein will make the case that if we look at not just the negative side-effects of fossil fuels but also their benefits, humanity should actually use more fossil fuels in the decades to come.
While the media today claim that we are in the midst of both a “renewable revolution” and “climate emergency,” reality proves the opposite.
Today’s pervasive claims of imminent climate catastrophe and imminent renewable energy dominance, Epstein will argue, are based on faulty thinking methods, false assumptions, and anti-human values.
The path to global human flourishing, Epstein will argue, is a combination of using more fossil fuels, getting better at “climate mastery,” and establishing “energy freedom” policies that allow nuclear and other truly promising alternatives to reach their full long-term potential.
