SMPR’s Chris Temple, sets down for an interview with Ryan Sistad, Executive Director BIOBY

But sound planning (which should have started years ago) based on science, engineering, physics, economics and more has instead been supplanted by a series of ideologically-inspired “wish lists” and virtue signaling suggesting a Utopian, simple process will get us all to the “green energy” future its proponents desire. But it’s not that easy, as even political leaders are starting to understand. Make sure to watch Chris Temple’s recent interview with Ryan Sistad!

One of the biggest parts of this dilemma for America especially is that—from rare earth elements, to battery metals, to uranium and more—we do not control our own destiny. Indeed, just one example of this, we pay Russian concerns over $1 billion/year for the enriched uranium needed to run our fleet of nuclear power plants here in America despite having a century’s worth of uranium resources within our own four walls. And Russia is a country we are ostensibly at war with. 

And we could talk all day about our reliance on all manner of materials from China.

The right policies for America…the building and fostering of American resources and ancillary needed industries…and the employment at good wages of American workers…could lead to a new technological and industrial revolution for our nation; and that is the key message of Better In Our Back Yard
