Introduction
Exploring the conversion of CO2 into graphene, challenges in scaling production, and transitioning solar industry to recycled steel. Highlighting the importance of decarbonization and upcoming events on energy needs of AI computing.
The IPCC says that we likely need to capture hundreds of gigatons of CO2 if we want to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. So what are we going to do with all that carbon?
In this episode, Shayle talks to Julio Friedmann, chief scientist at Carbon Direct. Julio says we will store the vast majority of that CO2. But the markets for using CO2 in things like concrete, fizzy water, and chemicals will play an important role in developing the carbon management economy. Shayle and Julio cover topics like:
