On The Carbon Copy podcast thisweek:

Just as the auto industry resolves supply-chain problems stemming from the Covid pandemic, anew disruptive force has emerged: labor disputes.

Nearly 20,000 American autoworkers are on strike as they ask for higher pay, better benefits and other concessions. At the heart of their concerns is one big question: Will the shift to electric cars leave them worseoff?

Well look at astrike that is sparking widespread debate about how to support the companies making electric vehicles for the masses and the workers who makethem.

Then, well discuss the push for green steel. Are automakers akey component of the push to move low- and zero-carbon steel into mass production?

Finally, as the presidential campaign gets noisier, we look at how Republicans are talking about climate and energy.
