David Keith:  " I think one thing that Clive does, and did here, is attempt 
to say that people advocating research in this technology like me are doing 
it as a way to avoid the social change we need. And to put it simply, it’s 
nonsense. So there are a lot of reasons why this might be wrong, why my 
advocacy of this might be dangerous, and I lie awake worried about them and 
did long before Clive first thought of it....

...I think Clive needs to take seriously the fact that most of the people 
working on this actually are very serious about the social changes needed, 
and we may still be wrong to advocate it, but Clive needs to take us on on 
the reasons we’re wrong, not on a kind of ad hominem attack that we really 
just like techno fixes and want to as he said in his book “mollify the 
owners of the fossil fuel infrastructure”. That’s nonsense".

Clive Hamilton: "But I haven’t claimed that at all".

David Keith: "Uh, well actually, I’m reading a quote".

This exchange, and more, aired on Public Radio International's "Living on
