あらすじ・解説
While there no doubt that transitioning away from fossil fuels is crucial for the future of our planet, it is still important to consider what we are transitioning towards. Wind and sunlight may be renewable and infinite, but can the same be said for the resources that wind turbines and solar panels are made of?
In this episode, we are joined by Dr Rachelle Kernen from the School of Physics, Chemistry and Earth Sciences at the University of Adelaide. As a geoscientist with a research focus on hydrogen and critical mineral deposits, Rachelle is perfectly positioned to answer our questions about every stage of renewable energy production and highlight the technological innovations and policy reforms we still need to further enhance its sustainability.
