Ed Whittingham: The race to scrub the sky started over 400 years ago, in the days of King James I. Unbeknownst to the players involved at the time, the technology they came up with could very well play a key role in the race to combat the climate crisis in the years to come.
Welcome to Scrubbing the Sky, a podcast series about the race to scrub carbon dioxide from the atmosphere at a planetary scale.
David Keith: When you bring emissions to zero, you'll stop warming the planet, but you won't cool it off. And Cooling off the planet, by just waiting takes of order 10, 000 years. We know that we can pull kinetic energy out of the air.
Why couldn't we pull CO2 out?
Vicci Hollub: We realized that if we could capture atmospheric CO2 from human made sources and use it to create low carbon products, it would reduce emissions while providing the resources that society needs.
Al Gore: A deceptive lie to publics around the world that this is ready to go and what it means is we can keep burning fossil fuels forever!
Jan Wurzbacher: If we listen to climate scientists, they tell us we need to remove 10 billion tons of CO2 from the atmosphere by 2050. It's not one company. It's not two companies. It's likely not 10 companies who can do it. So we need, we need several.
Jim McDermott: There's this company up in Squamish called Carbon Engineering and they do a thing called direct air capture and we've got money in it.
There's this guy, David Keith, and I'm like, David Keith? Like, he actually did it?
