    Charged Conversations - What can the US learn from Europe's failed green policies
    Dec 8 2025
    This episode of Charged Conversations, hosted by Brigham McCown, will focus on Europe's aggressive green energy transformation.

    The central theme: the failure of energy policy built on ideology rather than physics and economics, despite noble intentions. This discussion is framed by a Wall Street Journal investigation that detailed how Europe cut emissions faster than anyone else, but at the cost of hobbling its own economy.Key points the episode plans to cover:
    • The Warning for America: The host warns that Europe's issues are not a distant problem, but an "early signal" of what happens when governments "substitute aspiration for planning". He states that America is being pushed toward many of the same policies.
    • The Promise vs. Reality: The segment begins by contrasting Europe's 20-year promise of a clean, job-creating, cheaper, and world-leading sustainable future with the actual outcomes.
    • Today's Analysis: The episode will examine what Europe promised, what it delivered, and the resulting costs—industrially, economically, and politically.
    • The Main Lesson: The ultimate goal is to determine what lesson the United States should take from Europe's experience.

    Today's episode is about minerals, specifically rare earth elements that quietly power our modern world, from electric vehicles to missile guidance systems. These 17 obscure materials are the backbone of our 21st century technologies, and right now they're overwhelmingly controlled by a single country, China. We'll break down what rare earths are, why they matter, how China came to dominate the global supply chain and what the US can realistically do to catch up. We'll also talk about America's vulnerabilities and what needs to change if we are to reclaim our industrial and strategic independence.
