You sent in great questions, and today we’re answering them. In this episode, Shayle hands it over to Lara Pierpoint, the managing director of Trellis Climate at the Prime Coalition and host of The Green Blueprint. Together they cover topics like:
Whether solar radiation management will remain the “black sheep” of climate technologies
What technologies will excel in a world of rising power prices
Whether the nuclear renaissance is finally here
Why Lara and Shayle are more bullish on vehicle-to-home than V2G
The thorny plastics problem – and whether it’s core to climate change
