Australia could have become a nuclear power: physicist Greg Clark
The scientist and businessman says climate science is still a work in progress and that Australia needs a national project.
Dr Greg Clark: “I wanted to be a professional footballer. I really did. I went and had one try-out with St Kilda and realised that was one training session, wasn’t going to make it. So I did physics.” Dominic Lorrimer
It's the morning of my lunch with leading Australian scientist and businessman Greg Clark and I get a text from former Liberal minister Warwick Smith: "Tony, be nice to my Tasmanian friend at lunch today!"
The pre-emptive text was slightly unnerving but I later discover Smith found out about the lunch the night before when he visited Clark in his Glenn Murcutt designed home in the NSW Southern Highlands.
