Our Carbon Problem

Our Carbon Problem

The world has a big fat carbon problem. There’s already too much of it in the atmosphere and –  thanks to both our lifestyles and corporations’ polluting, business-as-usual practices – we’re emitting even more carbon into the atmosphere each and every second.

Enter carbon capturing.

Today in honor of Climate Optimism Week we are outlining the latest and greatest in the carbon capture game.

Here’s a preview:

[2:00] A carbon capture primer: What it is, why we need it, and why trees are simply no longer enough

[5:00] 2 examples of small-scale carbon solutions

[11:00] The main differences between post combustion capture and direct air capture

[18:00] What on earth should we do with the carbon we end up capturing?

[21:00]  Let’s not put all our eggs in the carbon capture basket! Here’s why

[19:00] Stop assuming that products on store shelves are safe! (And other advice for listeners who feel they have too much on their plate to worry about microscopic amounts of chemicals.)

[24:00] “It’s definitely not easy, but it’s also not that hard.” Here’s how Dr. Swan avoids plastic in her own life

[32:00] Hormone disrupting chemicals are in EVERYthing. How to identify which lifestyle swaps actually move the needle and which are just noise
