In Episode 11, Quinn & Brian ask with fingers crossed: Can carbon capture be a building block in climate action?
On the mic: David Hawkins, director of the climate program at the National Resources Defense Council, and the man basically responsible for you breathing clean air most days. So, you’re welcome.
We discuss David’s history of working to safeguard the planet, but more specifically, his thoughts on the futuristic but necessary technology that is carbon capture, and whether we can pin our hopes on it. Stay tuned for his thoughts on using your voice and vote to move the needle.
Also: yodeling.

Next, vote your representative out of office.
Have a nice day!
