Guillaume Pitron is an award-winning journalist and documentary-maker for some of France’s leading TV channels. His first book, The Rare Metals War: The Dark Side of Clean Energy and Digital Technologies, draws on six years of research to reveal our new dependence on rare metals.

In this podcast episode, Guillaume sheds light on why green and clean energy and technologies are not entirely green nor clean; what we can learn from the history of our energy infrastructure transitions; how moving to ‘green’ energy may actually worsen environmental injustice in some ways; and more.
