Reasons for Optimism: EU Leadership and Renewable Momentum

Since the Russia-Ukraine war began, EU states have spent spent more on Russian fossil fuels than they've given to Ukraine in aid.

In this episode, we discuss how countries and companies get around the UK and EU sanction regimes, and what this means for the ongoing conflict, as well as Europe (and the world's) transition to a cleaner, safer energy system.

In the midst of a trade war and challenging geopolitics, how are renewables and climate connected to energy security in Europe and elsewhere?

Our guest this week is Isaac Levi from the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air. Our host is Sulaiman Ilyas-Jarrett, former UK government advisor and Policy Fellow at the University of Cambridge Centre for Science and Policy.
