S2 #3 | Live in London: Getting removal right for people and planet
It's our final episode from the UK Greenhouse Gas Removal Event in London and our very own Tom Previte was asked to host another panel. This one was called "Getting it right for people and the planet" and was the conference's public facing panel, giving non-experts and newcomers a chance to learn a...
S2 #2 | The state of UK carbon removal
Today we’re at the UK Greenhouse Gas Removal Event, a gathering of researchers, policy makers and businesses, to discuss the state of carbon removal in the UK today. CO2RE, the greenhouse gas removal hub led by Oxford University and the hosts of the event, were kind enough to ask us to host a pair ...
