À propos de cet audio
Across the world, wind and solar power are often accused of harming public health and disrupting communities — but the science tells a different story.
In this episode of Energy Insights, host Stephen takes a closer look at one of the most persistent myths in the energy debate: that renewable projects threaten wellbeing. Drawing on studies from health authorities and real-world data, the discussion reveals how wind and solar actually improve public health by reducing air pollution, cutting respiratory illnesses, and easing pressure on national healthcare systems.
Beyond health, the episode also explores the economic and social benefits of renewables — from lower public spending to revitalised rural economies and new local jobs. The evidence is clear: clean energy doesn’t just power homes; it powers healthier, more resilient communities.
