Episode notes

The speakers discuss how companies are using the climate crisis as a marketing tool, resulting in increased consumerism and claims of sustainability while still emitting excessive greenhouse gases. They also explain the concept of carbon dioxide equivalent.

We have another special episode! Today, Rollie from Climate Town joins us to discuss clean energy and the climate crisis. Specifically, he helps us understand some of the promises that big tech companies companies like Apple and Google have been making when it comes to the climate. Like what is a carbon credit? And what the heck is a Duck curve? We hope you learn as much as we did in this fun chat!
