Happy #EarthDay! 🌍

Two weeks ago I had the privilege to discuss #decarbonization with @Sir_David_King, one of the most authoritative academics on climate change.

Watch our interview to understand why decarbonization and collaboration is so important:

I'm currently investigating the possibilities of focusing on Direct Air Capture for a new startup. If you work for an organisation currently looking at/already working on DAC, completing this 2 minute survey for market research would be really helpful!

Proud to have done the #IETYWE ladies proud by getting a decent distance with my plane!
The pressure to deliver in under 60 seconds is intense 😅
