Net Hero at COP26 – Day four – Al Gore says net zero can save us and nuclear goes zero?

Today was energy day at COP26 and we had a lot about killing off coal but there was lots more too. I was walking through the 'action zone' when who decided to offer a talk to us all, none other than Al Gore the former US Vice President and his message around net zero was actually quite positive!

I then spoke to two energy sector advocates that are vital for the transition - nuclear and ... hydropower and the day ended with a powerful statement from a delegate from Tanzania who bascially said for COP26 to work, rich nations need to cough up!

Oh it's not on the podcast but we will feature a short film soon on climate artist Vincent Huang - his stuff is amazing check it out when we broadcast the film.
