“Shipping drives 90% of the world's economy. It's our most efficient way to move things around the world, better than land or air shipping, but it still emits around 3% of global CO2. Because of that, ship owners face growing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from regulations, customers, and shareholders.” Dylan Garrett In this episode of Hardware to Save a Planet, Dylan talks to Alisha Fredriksson, Co-Founder and CEO of Seabound. The company has developed a simpler, more efficient, and cheaper technology to address maritime emissions. Alisha explains how Seabound's system, housed in modular shipping containers, helps ship owners reduce CO2 emissions using the latest second-generation carbon capture technology. She shares insights on the challenges shipping lines and owners face, like meeting IMO regulations and the Poseidon Principles while highlighting Seabound's practical, scalable solution. Alisha also reflects on her journey as a non-technical founder and the importance of curiosity and adaptability in tackling climate tech challenges. The conversation explores Seabound's business model, the future of decarbonization, and actionable steps we need to take to fight climate change.

Today, we're bringing you a best-of from our archive of over 250 episodes. We're all aware that the consequences of climate change range from rising sea levels, to drought, wildfires, economic disruption and the displacement of populations. We're seeing and living through many of these effects, but is there hope for managing additional risk? A couple years ago we sat down with environmental scientist Chris Field to ask this question. He shared that it's still possible to pave the way to a sustainable future. Take another listen to this episode to hear more about how he thinks we can do this together.Have a question for Russ?

We discuss the way in which both the RSF (Rapid Support Forces) paramilitaries and the government-backed SAF (Sudanese Army Forces) in Sudan having been using starvation as a weapon of war. Now, starvation is in full effect in Sudan with the Sudanese people caught in the middle of the RSF and SAF. It is, in a word, a massive humanitarian crisis that the U.S. has done little to stop. Even much needed humanitarian aid is not getting into Sudan at this point. Many Sudanese have already been displaced and the situation is getting worse by the day.

It's titled 3 Sustainable Investing ETFs for Eco-Conscious Investors and it's by Shweta Kumari. It was seen on stocknews.com. Here are some quotes. “1. American Century Sustainable Growth ETF (ESGY - Get Rating) This fund targets the U.S. public equity markets, focusing on companies across various sectors, including growth and value stocks of large-cap companies, specifically those within the market capitalization range of the Russell 1000 Growth Index. American Century Sustainable Growth ETF emphasizes investing in socially conscious businesses that actively promote environmental responsibility. The fund has $19.70 million in assets under management (AUM)… American Century Sustainable Growth ETF has an expense ratio of 0.39%, compared to the category average of 0.37%... The fund pays an annual dividend of $0.16, translating to a 0.28% yield at the prevailing price level… The ETF's overall A rating equates to a Strong Buy in our proprietary rating system… 2. Nuveen Winslow Large-Cap Growth ESG ETF (NWLG - Get Rating) The fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities of U.S. companies with market capitalizations exceeding $4 billion at the time of purchase. It focuses on companies that exhibit sustainable environmental, social, and governance (ESG) characteristics… The fund has an expense ratio of 0.65%...

It's titled 7 Best Green Mutual Funds to Fight Climate Change and is by Jeff Reeves and reviewed by John Divine. It's found on money.usnews.com. Here are some brief highlights on each of the picks from the article. “1. Parnassus Core Equity Fund (PRBLX) Assets under management: $30.1 billion Expense ratio: 0.82% Minimum investment: $2,000 The Parnassus Core Equity Fund is the leader among green mutual funds when it comes to assets under management. That said, it's not perfect or particularly flashy. It… is designed to be a core large-cap fund as much as a green mutual fund. That said, investment manager Parnassus has made a name for itself by linking traditional fundamental analysis with an overlay of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors… Parnassus Core Equity Fund is well established with the largest asset tally of this group, making it a logical starting place for many investors. 2. Calvert Equity Fund (CSIEX) Assets under management: $6.8 billion Expense ratio: 0.91% Minimum investment: $1,000 Calvert is an investment adviser that prioritizes ESG in its approach, with a 40-year track record of ‘responsible' investing that takes into account sustainability and environmental factors, among other criteria… The fund is not designed to hold solar stocks or wind turbine manufacturers but rather large-cap domestic stocks that rank highly for their internal programs such as purchasing carbon offsets or building LEED-certified headquarters. Still, if you want to look beyond conventional index funds, then [this fund] is a good green mutual fund to consider. 3. Putnam Sustainable Leaders Fund (PNOPX) Assets under management: $6.6 billion Expense ratio: 0.92% Minimum investment: None This Putnam offering is another of the largest and most respected sustainable investing options out there. It's also a focused… as it ‘invests in companies that have demonstrated leadership in key sustainability issues that are financially material to their business context,' according to official documentation from its manager Franklin Templeton. One notable downside that investors should consider before buying in: There are some high front-end costs associated with [the fund], which has a maximum initial charge of 5.75%. 4. Amana Growth Fund (AMAGX) Assets under management: $2.8 billion Expense ratio: 0.91% Minimum investment: $100 Very accessible with just a $100 minimum investment, this Amana Growth fund from Saturna Capital is incredibly unique in that it bills itself as ‘halal' – or fitting the religious requirements of Islam… That means you won't find businesses that focus on alcohol, pornography or gambling. And interestingly enough, you won't find a penny in finance because strict Islamic law prohibits demanding interest on loans. 5. Fidelity U.S. Sustainability Index Fund (FITLX) Assets under management: $4.2 billion Expense ratio: 0.11% Minimum investment: None A cost-effective option, Fidelity U.S. Sustainability Index Fund… is a sustainability-focused mutual fund that charges just a fraction of what the other funds on this list charge. It is also the most wide-ranging of the green mutual funds so far, with 285 total stocks in its portfolio. That doesn't mean it's all that more diversified, however, as it is weighted by size – so mega-cap stocks like Microsoft (MSFT) and Nvidia Corp. (NVDA) dominate the portfolio. 6. Calvert Small-Cap Fund (CCVAX) Assets under management: $2.9 billion Expense ratio: 1.19% Minimum investment: $1,000 Calvert Small-Cap Fund is definitely the most expensive fund on this list from an annual fee perspective. That's in part because mutual funds generally have higher costs than their exchange-traded cousins, but it's also because this is a boutique offering with an active approach. 7. Parnassus Mid Cap Fund (PARMX) Assets under management: $3 billion Expense ratio: 0.96% Minimum investment: $2,000 With a focus on mid-sized corporations and an average market value of about $30 billion, this investment vehicle offers a way to invest sustainably in established firms but not necessarily duplicate positions you might own in a traditional large-cap fund.

However, buying low and selling high is generally the best approach when buying investments. So, for those of you who favor this approach and are interested in renewable energy stocks, this article is for you. It's titled 3 Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy at 52-Week Lows in July by InvestorPlace and seen on markets.businessinsider.com. Here are some quotes. “While buying stocks that are at their 52-week lows is risky, on the other hand, it could present a massive upside opportunity. Thus, it is important for investors to understand exactly why the stock is down before jumping into buying. For investors looking for cheap green energy, below are the three best renewable energy stocks to buy at an all-time low in July. 1. Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG) specializes in hydrogen fuel systems which are used to replace traditional batteries powered by electricity… Currently, its stock price is almost at an all time low – it dipped to $3.07 per share compared to $12.76 per share just a year ago… The company recently finished deploying 13 hydrogen refueling stations (HRS) in Europe, making Plug Power the largest owner of hydrogen refueling stations with over 250 stations globally. 2. Array Technologies (NASDAQ: ARRY) The stock is down -41.14% year to date… As the largest solar tracker company globally, Array Technologies offers various services including the DuraTrack system, which is a single-axis tracker technology that helps maximize PV panel energy production. Recently, Citigroup upgraded the average one-year price target for Array Technologies to $19.52 per share… 3. Shoals (NASDAQ:SHLS) is the largest provider of electrical balance of systems (EBOS) solutions for utility-scale solar… Even though Shoals stock is down more than 70% year over year as of writing, Shoals has reasons to make investors feel confident about buying [it].” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Other Honorable Mentions – not in any order. 1) Title: 5 Alternative Energy Stocks to Buy Amid Solid Industry Rally on finance.yahoo.com.

Black Soldier Flies Fight Climate Change Many people eat pork and chicken. Pork comes from pigs. Chicken comes from… well, chickens! Pigs and chickens eat lots of corn, soy, and fish. 很多人會吃豬肉跟雞肉,而豬跟雞吃很多玉米、大豆跟魚。 We need lots of big corn farms, soy farms, and fish farms to feed them. But these farms are bad for our land, air, and water. They make climate change worse. 所以要餵豬跟雞,我們需要很多玉米田、大豆田跟魚類養殖場,但是這些農場對土地、空氣跟水都不好,讓氣候變遷惡化。 But a company in the UK is fighting climate change with soldiers … black soldier flies! The company helps farmers and others make fly farms. Fly farms are better for the environment than corn, soy, and fish farms. But, who eats flies? Yuck! 有一間英國公司想要用黑水虻 (m?ng ㄇㄥˊ)來對抗氣候變遷。他們幫農夫打造養殖場,因為它比種玉米、大豆以及養魚還要環保,但是誰要吃呢? Pigs and chickens eat fly larvae. Larvae are good food for these animals. Scientists found that pigs grow better! Their pork is also better! Mmmmm! 豬跟雞會吃黑水虻的幼蟲,這些幼蟲對牠們是好的食物,科學家發現吃幼蟲的豬,長得比較好、肉質也比較好。 In fly farms, larvae eat lots of food waste. That's the food we don't eat. When it's thrown away, it makes gases. These gases make climate change worse. Larvae stop food waste from making bad gases. 黑水虻的幼蟲吃很多廚餘,這樣可以減少廚餘釋放的氣體,阻止氣候變遷惡化。 Black soldier fly farms can do so much to fight climate change! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Vocabulary 科學家想出各種辦法來延緩氣候變遷。 1. pork 豬肉 。 What are you having? 你要吃什麼? I think I'll go for the grilled pork chop with potatoes. 我想要選烤豬排加馬鈴薯。 Oh, that sounds great! 聽起來真不錯! 2. chicken 雞肉。 And I would like to have crispy chicken with tomato salad. 我想要脆皮雞加番茄沙拉。 Yours sounds even better. 你的聽起來更棒。 3. food 食物。 Good, then we can share some of our food.那好,我們可以分享食物。 You're not on a diet, are you?你不會在節食吧? 4. eat 吃。 No, I just don't want to eat too much.沒有,我只是不想吃太多。 With me around, you really don't need to worry about that。有我在,你真的不用擔心。 今天的單字經常用到。pork豬肉 chicken雞肉 food食物 eat吃 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quiz 1.

In 2015, the Vatican published Pope Francis' landmark encyclical Laudato Si', which took a firm stance on climate change and urged people to “hear both the cry of the planet and the cry of the poor.” But even with the Pope's advocacy for the climate movement, action has been slow, especially here in the U.S., where dioceses are reluctant to divest millions from fossil fuels and discuss climate issues with their congregations. We'll talk with the Pope's right-hand man on climate, Father Joshtrom Isaac Kureethadam, about the Catholic Church's efforts to combat climate change and why the climate crisis is “not just a physical problem, but also a deeply moral one.” Guests: Reverend Dr. Joshtrom Isaac Kureethadam, chair of Philosophy of Science and Director of the Institute of Social and Political Sciences, the Salesian Pontifical University in Rome; former coordinator, Ecology and Creation at the Vatican Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development; author, The Ten Green Commandments of Laudato Si'
