climate emissions

The electrification of the transportation space is hugely important for reducing emissions, and one company heavily involved in this process is Siemens as a supplier to many of the main car manufacturers.

I reached out to Ed Bernardon, Vice President, Strategic Automotive Initiatives Siemens Digital Industries Software to invite him to come on the podcast. Ed is a fellow podcaster. He has a podcast called The Future Car Podcast with Ed Bernardon - you should check it out.

We had a wonderful conversation covering everything from how autonomous tractors can save Monarch butterflies, to changing urban design implications of electric vehicles, and what's coming next.

I learned loads as always, and I hope you do too.

Today's podcast is a little different in that we're tackling two climate-related topics with the one guest: climate anxiety, and water shortages.

Marc Cortez is the author of Climaturity - A Journey To The Muddy Climate Middle, as well as being the founder and CEO of water neutrality company Liquid8.

I invited him to join me on the podcast to discuss both topics - his take on climate anxiety, as laid out in his book, Climaturity, and how his company Liquid8 aims to help organisations reach water neutrality.

This was a truly fascinating episode of the podcast and I learned loads as always, and I hope you do too.

Banks and financial institutions are looking to invest in projects which reduce emissions, but to avoid the greenwashing label, these projects need hihi quality data. That's where CarbonChain comes in.

CarbonChain is a carbon accounting platform that supplies high fidelity data so organisations can prove emissions reductions. I invited Adam Hearne, CarbonChain's co-founder and CEO to come on the podcast to tell me more.

We had an excellent discussion talking about how CarbonChain calculates emissions for their customers, the kinds of industries CarbonChain works in (the really heavy emitters), and where to next for the company.

This was a truly fascinating episode of the podcast and I learned loads as always, and I hope you do too.

The aviation industry is one the hardest to decarbonise. One way to get its climate emissions down in the short term is to use sustainable aviation fuels (SAF).

One company in this space has come up with a plant that can not only produce oil that can be used to create SAF, but it can do so in a way that is economically advantageous for the farmer, without taking land from food production.

We had a fascinating conversation covering how camelina can be used to create sustainable aviation fuel, as another source of Omega3, and to produce bioplastics.

Is climate a driving force for Digital Transformation in companies? And what role does sourcing and procurement play?

In early 2022, Economist Impact conducted a global survey of 430 C-level executives across various organisational functions to explore how their businesses and industries are transforming procurement to meet existing and emerging challenges.

To find out the results of this survey, I invited Global Market Research Director, Procurement and Supply at SAP Gordon Donovan to come on the podcast to discuss it.

We had a fascinating conversation covering why sourcing is important to climate, how organisations are responding, and regional differences in the data.

I learned loads. I hope you do too.

Machine Learning is great for helping us surface new series on Netflix, for helping us search through the thousands of photos on your phone to find that one of the cute cat you took a picture of all those months ago, or for things such as fraud detection by banks, but can it be used to impact the physical environment to help reduce climate emissions?

Prateek Joshi, the founder of PlutoShift thinks so! PlutoShift uses Machine Learning to help Anhueser-Busch, Dow Chemicals, and others reduce their emissions, so I invited him on the podcast to hear more.

We had a fascinating conversation covering why Prateek decided to tackle climate emissions using machine learning, some of the really interesting solutions they have come up with for their clients, and where they're headed next.

I learned loads. I hope you do too.

Some of the lesser talked about emissions reductions solutions are efficiency based solutions. In this week's episode of the Climate 21 podcast I talk to Christopher Angelo, CEO of Glass Dyenamics, a company working in this space.

Glass Dyenamics uses dynamic glass (glass that changes its transparency when a low electric current is applied to it), to prevent buildings being overly warmed by the sun, thus reducing the energy load required to cool it. 

We had a fascinating conversation discussing the genesis of Glass Dyenamics, how dynamic glass works, and how it compares to solar.

This was an excellent episode of the podcast and I learned loads as always, and I hope you do too.

In several episodes of this podcast now guests have talked about the Circular Economy, but I've never had a full episode on it, so today we're changing that!

I invited Stephen Jamieson to join me for this episode. Stephen is the Global Head of Circular Economy Solutions at SAP, so no one is better placed to talk to us about Circular Economy, and how it relates to climate.

We talked about how the Circular Economy relates to Climate, what some of the latest happenings in the Circular Economy space are, and some examples of how the Circular Economy can help organisations. 

This was an excellent episode of the podcast and I learned loads as always, and I hope you do too.

This week's episode of the podcast deals with methane once more.

Last week's episode featured a startup in the methane space called Bennamann. This week I interviewed Andrew Benedek, the founder, and CEO of one of the world's most established methane companies Anaergia.

We talked again about the importance of capturing fugitive methane, Anaergia's place in the ecosystem, as well as their future plans.

Fugitive methane - what is it? And how can it be turned from a nasty climate emission into a source of energy, reduced emissions, and a way to reduce an organisation's costs, amongst other benefits?

To answer these and more questions I invited Chris Mann, Co-Founder, and CTO of Bennamann to come on the podcast to tell us all about it.

UPDATE: Chris emailed me to say the following -

"Listening to it played back I realised that I had made an error when I gave an idea of the energy that could be generated from the methane captured from a small farm in a day. 

 I said that a daily capture of 100kg of methane equated to 15MWh of heat or provide about 7MWh of power and 0.8MWh of waste heat. 

 When I did the calculation in my head I was thinking of a ton to make the sums easier but I must have forgotten to divide back through.

 The correct answer is 1.5MWh of heat if burnt or about 0.7MWh of power and 0.8MW of waste heat in the latest FPT engines. Still not to be sniffed at especially at today’s prices and scarcity."

Have you come across the term Climate Interventions before? If not, possibly you've heard of Geoengineering.

Prof Wake Smith lectures in Yale about Climate Interventions, and is about to publish a book called  Pandora's Toolbox, The Hopes And Hazards Of Climate Interventions. So obviously, I invited him to come on the podcast to enlighten us on the topic.

We had a fascinating conversation covering the limitations of our Net Zero goals, why we might need Climate Interventions, and what Climate Interventions we could use.

Welcome to the 50th episode of the Climate 21 podcast. In this instalment, due to a scheduling snafu, I was without a guest, so I took the opportunity to talk about a recent keynote talk I have delivered now a few times to phenomenal feedback - The Sustainability Imperative.

In this talk I go through the roots of my passion for sustainability, the factors making action on sustainability increasingly important, progressive happening in the fields of Energy, and Transportation, and practical steps you and/or your organisation can take to reduce your emissions.

Hopefully this was an interesting episode of the podcast and you learned some. Next week back to our regular interviewee podcast :)

If sub-Saharan Africa produces just 7% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and the livestock sector just a fraction of those, why should the governments of these countries be concerned?

Because there's much more to the story. The intensity of the emissions is higher in these countries than in others, and the livestock sector is growing in size every year. In the second part of a mini-series on climate change and livestock, presenter Tim Offei-Addo speaks to ILRI scientists Polly Ericksen and Klaus Butterbach-Bahl to find out what makes these emissions so important, and what can be done about it.

Ericksen and Butterbach-Bahl explain how ILRI helps to collect data about greenhouse gas emissions in sub-Saharan Africa, equipping countries with the means to tell an accurate story of their climate emissions to the international community. 

And they warn that as developed countries vilify livestock as a major producer of greenhouse gases, this could prevent crucial investments in livestock in the developing world. Investing in livestock in sub-Saharan Africa could help mitigate emissions, help poor farmers earn a livelihood and produce more food. Is there a place for livestock to be part of the solution, and not the problem, for climate change?

Scripted by Tim Offei-Addo

One of the most difficult industries to reduce emissions in is the chemicals industry. I recently came across Carbon Minds, a company focused on emissions data specifically for the chemicals industry.

I was intrigued to know more so, I invited Arne Kätelhön, Carbon Minds co-founder and Managing Director to come on the podcast to tell me all about the industry, and how they're helping clean it up.

We had a fascinating conversation and as always, I learned loads, I hope you do too.

Technology has a large and growing carbon footprint. Everything from when you open Google on your phone, to browsing your Instagram feed, to sending an email has climate emissions implications (by the way, speaking of Google, next week's episode features a senior Google exec sharing what they're doing to reduce their emissions!).

How can we address that issue? That is the challenge being taken up by Climate Action Tech (CAT for short). Climate Action Tech is a grassroots organisation crowdsourcing best ways to reduce emissions in tech, and actively sharing that information.

To learn more about this I invited Sandra Pallier (@TweetsofSandra on Twitter) and Hannah Smith (@HanOpcan on Twitter) to come on the podcast to talk all about it.

We had a fascinating conversation, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I hope you enjoy it too.

1. Ratings and reviews for the podcast
2. Some of the recent episodes I published (in case you missed them ,now's a good time to catch-up!) and
3. I previewed some of the upcoming episodes including an incredible episode which I'm hoping will go live April 28th. Listen to the podcast to find out who I'm referring to

And that's it. A short episode this week, but as I mentioned you can take that as an opportunity to catch up on some of the back catalog you might have missed. Have a good one and I'll catch you back here again next Wednesday when I'll have a great episode talking to some of the good people in ClimateAction.tech.

If you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - feel free to leave me a voice message over on my SpeakPipe page, head on over to the Climate 21 Podcast Forum, or just send it to me as a direct message on Twitter/LinkedIn.

And if you want to know more about any of SAP's Sustainability solutions, head on over to www.sap.com/sustainability and if you liked this show, please don't forget to rate and/or review it. It makes a big difference to help new people discover the show. Thanks.

And remember, stay healthy, stay safe, stay sane!

Boston Consulting Group is one of the most prestigious management consulting firms in the world.

In September 2020 BCG committed to going Net Zero by 2030, and carbon negative thereafter. And they are committing "$400 million over the next decade to enable BCG teams to drive climate and environmental impact across industries and countries".

Then in late January of this year (2021) BCG CEO Rich Lesser wrote a post on the World Economic Forum blog titled "Supply chains can be a climate game-changer. Here's why"

Intrigued and wanting to know more, I reached out to Michel Frédeau and Daniel Weise at BCG. Michel is a Managing Director and Senior Partner at BCG and is their Global Leader, Climate & Environment. While Daniel, a Managing Director and Partner is BCG's Global Topic Leader Procurement.

We had an excellent wide-ranging conversation covering not just BCG's Net Zero commitments, but also how they help their clients with their carbon commitments.

As you can probably tell, I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation. I hope you enjoy listening to it too.

On this week's episode of the Climate 21 podcast we have a slight change of direction - away from the corporate world, and into the world of sport. Specifically powerboat racing. Not very sustainable, right? Well, that depends...

The new E1 Series is the first ever world electric powerboat series - yes, electric powerboats. In the same way that Formula 1 car racing brought about many advancements in modern cars, the E1 Series intends to modernise the marine world and push the envelope on technological advancements there.

To learn more about this fascinating space, I invited E1 Series founder and CEO Rodi Basso to join me on the podcast to talk about the thinking behind, and the aims of the E1 Series.

As you can probably tell, I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation. I hope you enjoy listening to it too.

The investment community has enormous influence on global markets  (by directing capital flows) and the climate emissions space is by no means immune to this.

I invited J.P. Morgan's Head of  EMEA ESG Debt Capital Markets Paul O'Connor to come on the podcast to talk about how this works.

I know next to nothing about finance as you can probably tell from the questions I was asking, but Paul was excellent, and explained it all extremely well, so even I could understand, and I learned loads.

As you can probably tell, I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation. I hope you enjoy listening to it too.
