Tonight on Veritas, our special guest is Steve Goreham.
He's an engineer, author, and researcher who has spent years challenging the dominant narrative on energy, climate, and environmental policy. His new book, Green Breakdown: The Coming Renewable Energy Failure, argues that the world's rush toward wind, solar, and net zero policies is not only unsustainable, but potentially catastrophic for human prosperity.
For decades, Goreham has studied the intersection of science, politics, and economics. He believes that climate fear, what he calls Climatism, has pushed governments, corporations, and citizens into costly energy decisions that don't align with reality.
In this interview, we'll explore whether rising temperatures truly threaten civilization, whether carbon dioxide is a pollutant or a gift, and whether hurricanes, wildfires, and droughts are really getting worse, or whether we've been misled. We'll also examine why so many proposed solutions, from banning gas stoves, to outlawing coal plants, to forcing electric cars, may cause more harm than good.
From the push to eliminate meat and dairy in world cities, to the trillion dollar subsidies behind renewable power, to the looming consequences for industry, agriculture, and the everyday person, Steve Goreham pulls no punches.
He believes the seeds of failure are already here, and that unless society shifts course, the green dream may end in economic and human disaster.
Tonight, we'll test those claims, challenge the assumptions, and seek the truth about energy, climate, and our future.
