Max and Tony clash this week on the future of air travel. Should we take a step back and slow travel down? Or is that not feasible in this day and age? What solutions are there? If any?

In this episode, we dive deep into the world of nuclear energy and explore the question: why don’t we have more nuclear power stations in the UK? We’ll unpack the challenges and complexities that have led to the relatively slow growth of nuclear power in the UK, despite its potential to provide clean, reliable energy. Is it too dangerous, or have we just been too cautious? Could nuclear power be the answer to the country’s energy needs and the climate crisis?

In this episode, Max and Tony break down why it’s not as easy as just stopping oil to fight climate change. Oil is in everything—cars, plastic, even food production—and getting rid of it isn’t just a switch we can flip.

Why is Europe not cold like Canada? ❄️ If we're not careful, it might be, sooner than we'd like, all because of AMOC. The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation is very real and quite scary. In this episode, Max and Tony break down what it is, what it has the potential to do, and how it's going to effect you. They also cover what can be done about it, and why there's still hope.

Oceanographer Stefan Rahmstorf explains why Amoc breakdown could be catastrophic for both humans and marine life.

Welcome to 10-Minute Climate. The podcast powered by Beaverbrook Energy

In our first episode, Max and Tony take you through a brief history of energy, what it is, where it's come from and why they love it.
