  • Excellent podcast covering the root cause of most of our current issues

    I’m so glad someone is tackling this sticky problem we’ve found ourselves in, and dealing with the root cause, not just trying to treat the symptoms.

    My wife and I love listening to it and look forward to each episode. Dave, you’ve always had good co-hosts and your daughter is a great addition, what a gem… you must be a proud papa. Keep up the good work guys!

  • Great listening

    I really enjoy this podcast, it's a great place to learn about a part of the climate change converstaion which is often hidden or left out of mainstream media conversations. The passion for sustainability of Dave and Erika and the depth of their research and conversation make it well worth your time.
