    Trees: why they’re amazing, and how they’re threatened

    We did a tonne of tree-search ( 😜 ) and are excited to share what we learned about different tree species around the planet, the past and current threats to Earth's trees (including climate change itself), and the fascinating potential of trees to help us mitigate and adapt to extreme conditions and events that result from climate change.

    The Texas snowstorms: what really happened and why?

    In this episode of The Climate Fix Discussion Circles, our co-hosts - Amelia, Asim, Marketa, and Tim - will discuss the situation in Texas together and tease out some specific threads, like the technical/scientific truths, the social aspects (from disinformation to disproportionate effects on people), and the possible paths forward from here.

    Transitioning heating to hydrogen w/ Professor Averil Macdonald OBE

    1/3 of the UK's emissions are from heating, also in the UK most housing has a supply of gas, not something common in other countries. This opens the door for some interesting decarbonization options including replacing natural gas with hydrogen. We speak to Professor Averil Macdonald OBE about this and much more.

    Solving for SMEs w/ Dr. Ariel Edesess

    99.9% of all businesses in the UK have fewer than 250 employees and produce 60% of all the commercial sector emissions. Big companies get the headlines, but how do you help transition this long tail of businesses to a lower-carbon future? That's what Dr. Ariel Edesess is focussing on as a postdoctoral researcher with the Low Carbon Eco-Innovatory.

    Industrial carbon removal w/ Elba Horta from Puro.Earth

    When you turn Trees to Timber, you make it more worthwhile to keep that carbon locked up instead of burning it. We can't guarantee a forest won't be destroyed, but we can be pretty sure the timber from a forest will be used and not destroyed. This is how Puro Earth thinks of industrial carbon removal. They focus on scaling verified industrial processes that store CO2 for the long term in already mature technologies, like biochar, wooden and carbonated building materials.

    Personalising climate risk w/ Iggy Bassi from Cervest

    The world is not short of climate solutions, it's short of climate decisions. This week we speak to Iggy Bassi founder of Cervest about asset-level climate risk, how this closes the psychological gap, and makes climate more personal, triggering positive climate decisions.

    Helping cities become green w/ Mathieu Carlier from Everimpact

    Cities are responsible for 70% of global greenhouse gas emissions. City governments are important agents of action because of their close relationships with local businesses and citizens. Everimpact is making it easier for cities and companies to measure greenhouse gas emissions, identify opportunities to reduce emissions, and finance needed investments.

    Unlocking investment for renewables w/ Phillip Bruner from Enian

    Planning for a renewable energy plant is a hot mess! Lots of google searches, map queries, phone conversations, and ad-hoc data sets glued together with spreadsheets. It makes it hard for insurance companies to evaluate your risk and banks to lend you money which means less renewable sites get built. ENIAN has built a platform that makes it easier for companies to plan and finance renewable energy.
