What's new in the world of green technology? Noah Smith joins the show to discuss advances in solar, wind, battery and nuclear power, and why some of those technologies keep getting cheaper while others don't.  We also discuss other climate related moonshots like carbon capture technology and geothermal power, and why it's so important to invest in basic green tech research now.   Follow Noah at noahpinion.substack.com.  Also mentioned this episode - @hausfath, @ramez, @JesseJenkins, & @drvolts   To make sure you hear every episode, join our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/neoliberalproject.
