    Episode 3 - The Voluntary Carbon Market & Carbon Credits

    This episode features Dr. Zara Ahmed, Chief Operating Officer of Carbon Direct - a leading New York based carbon management firm. We had a great conversation, dissecting the realities of today’s Voluntary Carbon Market. We looked at why carbon removal credits still make up only 4% of the market, what truly defines a high-quality carbon credit, and why fewer than 10% of projects meet that bar today. Likewise, we touched on the imbalance in removal types - with 98% coming from nature-based projects and only 2% from high-durability solutions - and what needs to shift for high-permanence Carbon Removal Credits (CDR) to scale. Another key theme was market resilience, raising questions about buyer concentration and how to diversify demand. Aside from the Carbon Market, we discussed Zara’s packed career journey, how she became COO of Carbon Direct and how her diverse professional and educational background shaped a practical, interdisciplinary approach to environmental policy. Lastly, we ended on a broader note: the reasons to stay optimistic about climate innovation.

    Episode 2 - Regenerative Agriculture and Carbon Sequestration

    A conversation with Dr. Steven Adams, founder of US-based regenerative agriculture start-up Bison Underground. The company was one of the winning teams in the XPRIZE Carbon Removal Student Competition. In this episode, we’ll explore the story behind the company’s creation, how the technology works, and the bigger vision driving it forward. From how we define regenerative farming to why healthy soil might be one of our most overlooked climate solutions, this conversation breaks down complex science into everyday understanding. We’ll also talk about the real-world challenges of working with farmers, building a startup in the agricultural space, and what success could look like when business meets environmental impact.
