   It's the difference between using and selling to another country. For example, let's say my energy demand for 1 year is 1 GW. I generate that 1 GW using solar. But I sell 50% of it to a neighbor. Inside my house, I use gas for tha

   Nice! Add your company to AirMiners, the largest index of companies mining carbon fro the air: http://airminers.org We'll feature it on the top of the list.

   That looks like a powerful tool! I've been on the lookout for something interactive like that for awhile, only saw desktop-based simulators. Nice find, curious where you came across it.

   Surprising they include Direct Air Capture as CCS. Here's the more detailed 32 page PDF that accompanies the linked CCS article: https://pub.cicero.oslo.no/cicero-xmlui/bitstream/handle/112... I publish

    Just 6,000,000 topics of interest to cover all of history. That's about 1 per 1,000 people on the planet. There are 5.6 million small businesses in the United States alone. [1] Imagine a Wikipedia that had more like 6 trillion articles

    Completely agree on the "Carbon and Climate" section. Negative makes a carbon negative bracelet made with carbon dioxide pulled from the atmosphere. I created the company to make carbon more personal. http://gonegative.

    Wow appreciate hearing your story! Yes, please email me, tito@impossiblelabs.io I was just showing off the planter at a party in SF yesterday, it's such an icon. I write a weekly newsletter on carbon removal, check it out here: http:&

    Awesome! What have people seen from the performance of these types of corporate venture capital funds? I'm guessing a lot of it will go towards carbon neutral, but I'm most excited about the carbon removal pieces like Direct air c

    I wonder the same thing! A mandate doesn't always have an upfront dollar cost, but it's certainly being paid for somehow. For example, subsidies on EVs. These shifts are tricky since they alter the market, so we have to figure out

    Yeah, I completely know what you're talking about in terms of water versus carbon dioxide. I work on climate solutions every day. My specific focus is on carbon and mining carbon from the air. However, loss of groundwater and water dep

    Nice assessment! Living in California, it's so tempting for me to point to the latest drought as "proof of climate change". But I find it safer to keep my climate discussions longer term, i.e. rising seas, overall warmer tem
