This evening I had the opportunity to talk with Dr. Arjun Makhijani, the President and Senior Engineer at the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research (IEER) of Takoma Park, MD. The conversation is available at Atomic Show #183 – Arjun Makhijani Explains Carbon Free, Nuclear Free Strategy
Dr. Makhijani is the author of Carbon Free, Nuclear Free (PDF download copy). That book is dedicated to Helen Caldicott and S. David Freeman. Makhijani claims that they were the inspiration for the effort.
Our conversation abruptly ended when Dr. Makhijani realized that I was not accepting his answers. He seemed disturbed that I wanted to ask more probing questions than he was ready to answer.
