Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 19 ratings
  • Biased and disingenuous

    A pro-geoengineering podcast dressed up as an objective and investigative show. The only decent guest was Lisa Levin who was largely ignored or misunderstood.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Dr. Jaime Palter and Dr. Dariia Atamanchuk Share Insights from Cutting-Edge OAE Field Research
Q: What are your conceptions of MRV (Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification) in the context of Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement?
They agree that MRV involves demonstrating the impact of alkalinity changes and ensuring that applications are safe and effective for mitigating climate change.
Dr. Jaime Palter and Dr. Dariia Atamanchuk Share Insights from Cutting-Edge OAE Field Research
Q: Why is field research critical in understanding ocean alkalinity enhancement?
Field research provides insights into real-world applications that can't be replicated in lab environments, which helps identify measurable impacts and potential ecological effects.
Dr. Jaime Palter and Dr. Dariia Atamanchuk Share Insights from Cutting-Edge OAE Field Research
Q: Can you briefly describe your field research activity?
Jaimie's research examines the impact of agricultural limestone on coastal water, while Daria's work entails large scale ocean alkalinity trials in Halifax Harbor.
Dr. Jaime Palter and Dr. Dariia Atamanchuk Share Insights from Cutting-Edge OAE Field Research
Q: What motivates you to study Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement?
Both researchers express a desire to contribute to climate change solutions after extensive years observing the issues without actionable solutions.
Alex Gagnon on Banyu Carbon’s novel Direct Ocean Removal approach
Q: What do you plan to do with the carbon dioxide that you removed from seawater?
Banyu Carbon plans to work with partners to permanently store the captured CO2 geologically or utilize it in synthetic fuels.
