Energy, Prosperity and Geopolitics

Posted on July 3, 2025 By Sandra Dunham 1 Comment on Energy, Prosperity and Geopolitics

A free webinar looking at emissions, energy, and solutions globally presented by Todd De Ryck. REGISTER HERE TO ATTEND THIS ZOOM MEETING

How much energy do we consume globally today? What are the primary sources of energy? Are we using enough energy? Can we migrate to primarily low emissions sources of energy? Which are the primary low emissions sources of energy and how do they compare to high emissions sources? Which electricity grids have met a Paris climate target (less than 100 grams of CO2 emitted per kilowatt-hour, averaged on an annual basis) and how did they do it? What are some misunderstandings of existing energy sources?

All of these topics and more will be discussed and some “deep dives” of specific topics will also be included.

Todd De Ryck has been an advocate for nuclear energy since 2012.  After completing courses on the subject of nuclear power, supplemented by reading books and blog posts,  viewing documentaries, attending a Small Modular Nuclear Reactor conference, and email communications with nuclear energy experts, he became convinced that nuclear energy must play a major role in permanently displacing fossil fuel production all over the world. Since retiring in 2024 Todd has increased his nuclear energy activism and advocacy, including contributing to print and online publications, as well as presenting talks.
