Bonus Episode: Why We Must Defeat Climat...

Mike Carruthers | OmniCast Media
About this episode

The earth is getting warmer and the consequences of that have already begun to impact us all. Today, 6 out of 10 Americans describe themselves as “alarmed” or “concerned” about climate change, according to one recent study. Climate change is a huge global problem and there is likely not going to be a single solution. 

Joining me to explain and help us all understand the problem and the solutions to climate change is Christoph Gebald. He is Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Climeworks. Listen as Christoph explains the causes of climate change and how reducing our carbon footprint will not be enough to defeat it. We also have to remove CO2 from the air – which is exactly what Climeworks does. 

If you want to understand the problem better and discover what you can do to help fight climate change, listen and enjoy my conversation with Christoph Gebald.
