    E67: You would not believe how much water went into making your iPhone

    Usually on the show we talk about carbon-emitting sectors, but today we’re talking about one of the planet’s most precious resources: water. Specifically, industrial water, which is used in staggering amounts, horribly contaminated, and sometimes just put right back into the environment. Anurag Bajpayee, CEO of Gradiant, discusses the company's technology-driven end-to-end water solutions and their goal to conserve water for future generations and give nature its water back. Gradiant's approach is practical, driven by the outcome of cleaning and recycling water, rather than a specific technology or innovation (although there are plenty of innovations), and their latest achievement is a process to concentrate and destroy PFAS—aka, forever chemicals.

    E64: How Twelve is turning captured carbon into jet fuel

    Etosha Cave, co-founder of 12, a carbon transformation company, discusses the origin story of the company and its focus on creating jet fuel from CO2 and water. The company's technology mimics the process of trees, taking in CO2 and water and using electricity to break them down into smaller atomic bits and reforming them into new molecules. The main motivation behind the company's work is the desire to create clean and abundant energy, driven by Cave's personal experience growing up near an abandoned oil and gas waste site. 12 is currently in the process of commercializing its technology and has announced partnerships with Alaska Airlines and IAG, the parent company of British Airways.

    E63: The game-changer: fusion energy is closer than you think

    This week on the show, Molly talks with Bob Mumgaard, CEO of Commonwealth Fusion Systems, at an event that was held during New York Climate Week. Fusion energy is one of the most promising and biggest swings we can take toward solving the climate crisis and potentially reversing some of the damage we’ve already done. Fusion energy is the same type of energy that powers the sun; if we can generate that kind of energy economically on Earth, we could have a nearly limitless source of energy that emits no carbon emissions and with minimal long-lasting radioactive waste. It’s the kind of technology that really could change everything, and companies like Commonwealth Fusion Systems are a lot closer to this reality than you might think.

    E62: Draining the tub: Using the ocean to capture carbon

    Steve Oldham, CEO of Captura, discusses carbon capture and removal, highlighting the importance of these processes in achieving climate goals. He explains that carbon capture aims to turn off the 'taps' of CO2 emissions, while carbon removal directly removes CO2 from the atmosphere. Captura focuses on utilizing the ocean's natural ability to capture CO2 through a process called electrodialysis. Oldham emphasizes that their process is designed to be environmentally friendly and does not harm the ocean. He also discusses the potential customers for Captura's technology, including new companies and existing energy companies looking to transition from fossil fuels.
