Nuclear Energy Institute "Future of Energy" Campaign
The Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) launched a new advertising campaign featuring Patrick Moore of Greenpeace to promote nuclear power as "low carbon." The campaign is criticized for its poor messaging, including the inclusion of coal and natural gas in the "diversified portfolio" pitch. The hosts suggest the campaign may be "designed to fail" by the lobbying group to protect other energy interests.
