乔 莱斯特是一名在开发清洁、安全和碳平衡的能源方面的思考者和直言者。他深入地研究了长久以来被人们认为是敏感话题的核能源，包括对核电站的重新设计，使得核电站的经济性能够和传统能源相媲美。莱斯特认为，在核能源的安全性和经济性上， 我们还有很多潜力可以发掘。现在我们必须下定决心实现它。

利用核能源解决气候变化问题

Solving climate change means cutting global carbon emissions to zero, but existing climate agreements will not get us there. Developing nations like China and India are set to build hundreds of new coal plants because affordable, scalable alternatives do not yet exist for their needs. More than one billion people still lack electricity, and clean cooking fuels remain out of reach for billions more. Only a dramatic shift in energy technology, including next-generation nuclear, can meet the world's rising demand without locking in catastrophic warming.
