CLIMATE+ is a dynamic, interview-driven podcast that educates and inspires a global audience, from the climate-curious to the climate-committed, who seek both purpose and prosperity in addressing the unprecedented, interconnected, and global challenges we face. It’s climate change, of course, but also pollution, endemic, species loss, population gain, migration, resource conflict, and so many others, with feedback loops in and between and around each. Multiply that by mitigation, adaptation, resilience, and justice. Then raise it to the power of the entire planet. Climate+ addresses that complexity head-on with dynamic interviews of hand-picked experts and practitioners from around the world and across industry, academia, finance, government, and society at-large. Focused on substance and not marketing, Climate+ brings real-world experience and examples, especially those that are particularly effective and adaptable, and shows how we apply our unique selves – our superpowers – to move our world forward, no matter who, what, or where we are on our small planet. That’s the Climate+ World. Let’s get to work!
EDISON SQUINTS explores the future of electricity by imagining that Thomas Edison comes back to life. Since Edison’s time, the power system has gone from convenience to necessity, from rare to ubiquitous, and from helper to enabler of our economies and societies around the world. Would he recognize today's system? He might have to squint a little, but I say yes. But not for much longer. Because the electric power system will change more in the next decade than it has in the last century. Come 2035 or so, our reincarnated Edison can squint all he wants – he won’t know what he is looking at. I’ve identified about a dozen different drivers for that bold prediction, and this series is dedicated to exploring those drivers in a series of bite-sized “flash keynotes.” Each is hopefully thought-provoking on its own and points towards deeper discussions, helping position each of us to thrive in the most impactful decade in energy for a LONG time. I hope you’ll join me!
