Good Clean Energy is a podcast that tackles one of the most existential questions of our time: how to build a world with abundant, affordable, carbon-free electricity. TAE’s Jim McNiel dives into deep conversations with experts ranging from scientists to innovators to changemakers about the challenges our current energy systems face and updates on the race for game-changing, clean ways to power our lives.
In this episode, Jim is joined by Anu Khan, Deputy Director of Science and Innovation at the nonprofit Carbon180, to discuss the ins and outs of removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
