7. Plans for a Green Fusion Future (with Ed Lewis-Smith‪)‬ Language Connection

    • Language Learning

Fusion Power could change the world drastically over the next few decades and be the major key to stopping the climate crisis. I talk to Ed Lewis-Smith, who works for the British government as a civil servant, about what the Uk is doing with its fusion project. Firstly, what is fusion power, why do we need it, and is it safe?

Before we get into fusion, we start by discussing the general work of civil servants and the role they play in running a country, as well as Ed's career path into the civil service. Just how did he end up writing letters for the Queen at one point in his career before moving through different posts before landing on the business and energy sector?
