“Talking to people from different disciplines pushes your thinking about your assumptions, going out and listening to what other people are doing helps inform the way that you creatively solve the problem that's in front of you. Leaders often are scared by some of these ideas that are coming out of their workforce and that's why they're shutting them down. But if you can demonstrate yourself to be receptive to ideas, then you can help guide a creative future.” Telle Whitney on Electric Ladies Podcast Massive innovation is crucial to meet the scale of the climate crisis, but achieving this is increasingly challenging due to current political and social undercurrents. How can organizations innovate, and how can people within these organizations come together to brainstorm, bringing ideas of their own and improving on others? According to Telle Whitney, innovation must be an intentional, concerted effort that organizations actively adopt. Listen to Telle Whitney, Cofounder of the renowned Anita Borg Institute for Women in Technology & the Grace Hopper Conference – and one of Fast Company's most influential women in technology – on Electric Ladies Podcast. Launching her latest book, Rebooting Tech Culture: How to Ignite Innovation and Build Organizations Where Everyone Can Thrive, Telle joins Joan to discuss how organizations and leaders can cultivate the culture of innovation and creativity so critical to addressing the climate crisis. You'll hear about: The critical role culture plays in driving innovation. Why we must dispel the myth of the "lone genius". Telle's 6Cs for building a culture of innovation. How leaders can encourage courage and risk-taking. Plus, career advice specifically for women in engineering. “To take your career to the next level, learning how to tell your story and what you want is an important skill. [One thing] I probably get from mid-career women more than anything else is the belief that ‘if I do good work, it will be recognised'. That is simply not true. Being able to say, I did this great work, and to be able to tell that to your manager or to the company leader – it is as important as the product development itself.”  Telle Whitney on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here.

“We've worked with partners like AcelorMittal… and oil and gas refineries. Emissions that would've been destined for the atmosphere are piped into our bioreactor and our magnificent microbes turn that gas into ethanol. When we pull out that ethanol, we can send it a lot of different places. You can go to On, Adidas, Athleta and buy products made by these mighty microbes from steel mill emissions. We actually flew a Virgin Atlantic flight from Orlando to London with 50 percent of the fuel in that plane made from our ethanol.” Zara Summers on Electric Ladies Podcast  Addressing the climate crisis involves confronting some enormous challenges, from decarbonizing aviation to reducing fashion's carbon footprint. Fortunately, technology and innovation provide an opportunity to make significant strides forward. Meet LanzaTech, a company turning carbon dioxide into the raw materials and energy we need for our lives. Listen to Zara Summers, Chief Science Officer at LanzaTech, as she explains how the company is harnessing the power of nature's oldest metabolism, the mighty microbe. This innovation is turning greenhouse gases into everyday materials like shoes and clothing, sustainable aviation fuel for our jets, and even fish feed! You'll hear about: How LanzaTech transforms captured industrial emissions into valuable materials and fuels. The global brands working with LanzaTech (and how you can spot fabrics made from recycled emissions). How the technology is driving a circular economy in fashion and textiles. The uses of LanzaTech's protein-rich biomass in food and feed. Plus, advice on making a career transition. “Just jump in. Because even if it crashes and burns, it's experience and you learn no matter up and down inside it. But if you keep doing the same thing you've always done, you're robbing yourself of those opportunities. Even small risks – putting your hand up for a project where you might know 20 percent of what it takes to do it. Gosh, isn't that the best way to motivate yourself to learn something new?”  Zara Summers on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here.

Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks includes reviews of two articles by financial analysts at the highly respected Carbon Credits organization. By Ron Robins, MBA Transcript & Links, Episode 146, January 24, 2025 Hello, Ron Robins here, welcome to my podcast episode 146 published January 24, 2025, titled “Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks.” It's presented by Investing for the Soul. Investingforthesoul.com is your site for vital global ethical and sustainable investing mentoring, news, commentary, information, and resources. Now I'm having to record this podcast two days earlier than usual. But it is still filled with great, up-to-the-minute, informative articles! Also, remember that you can find a full transcript and links to content – including stock symbols and bonus material – on this episode's podcast page at investingforthesoul.com/podcasts. Also, a reminder. I do not evaluate any of the stocks or funds mentioned in these podcasts, and I don't receive any compensation from anyone covered in these podcasts. Furthermore, I will reveal any investments I have in the investments mentioned herein. Additionally, quotes about individual companies are brief. Please go to this podcast's webpage for links to the articles and more company and stock information. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (1) Today, I'm starting with two articles on low-carbon ETFs and stocks from analysts at carboncredits.com. The first article is titled Top 5 Carbon ETFs for Sustainable Investing in 2025. It's by Saptakee S. Here are the picks and brief quotes from the article. “1. iShares Global Clean Energy ETF (ICLN) is a part of BlackRock and a top-performing ETF… Essentially, this fund tracks an index of stocks in the global clean energy sector. One important attribute of this ETF is its strict sustainability rules. It excludes companies involved in weapons, tobacco, coal, oil sands, and Arctic drilling. (It) currently manages assets worth $5-6 billion. 2. Invesco Solar ETF (TAN) known as TAN, manages assets valued between $3–4 billion… This fund focuses on solar energy companies, such as manufacturers, installers, and technology providers… TAN is based on the MAC Global Solar Energy Index. It invests 90% of its assets in securities, American depositary receipts (ADRs), and global depositary receipts (GDRs) listed in the index… 3. First Trust Global Wind Energy ETF (FAN) known as FAN, currently manages assets worth $2–3 billion… It's prospective for those managing wind farms, producing wind power, or making wind energy equipment. However, companies must have a market cap of at least $100 million, a daily trading volume of $500,000, and a free float of 25% to join the index. 4. SPDR S&P Kensho Clean Power ETF (CNRG) currently has assets worth $1–2 billion… It is managed by State Street's Investment Solutions Group and is built for long-term growth. With its focus on innovation and the clean energy sector, this ETF is a great option for those wanting to invest in the future of renewable energy. 5. Global X Lithium & Battery Tech ETF (LIT) gives investors access to the booming electrification, lithium, and battery technology sector. Their assets have a $4–5 billion valuation… The ongoing global demand for lithium and supply constraints make this ETF a promising investment in this sector.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (2) Now this is the second article on Low-Carbon investments titled Top 5 Carbon Stocks to Watch in 2025. It's by Jennifer L. and also found on carboncredits.com. “1. Brookfield Renewable Partners (BEP) is one of the world's largest publicly traded renewable energy companies. With a clear focus on clean, renewable energy, Brookfield Renewable Partners distinguishes itself from many of its competitors by operating as a pure-play renewable energy company. This means that its portfolio consists exclusively of renewable sources of power generation, unlike other companies that often combine renewable energy with fossil fuel assets. As of 2024, Brookfield Renewable Partners diversified portfolio encompasses over 35,000 megawatts of operating capacity across various renewable energy sources. This extensive array of assets spans multiple regions, including North America, South America, Europe, and Asia, underscoring Brookfield Renewable Partners commitment to global renewable energy development. For investors seeking exposure to the renewable energy sector with a preference for established companies demonstrating stable growth and reliable returns, Brookfield Renewable Partners represents a compelling option. 2. Aker Carbon Capture ASA (AKCCF) is a Norwegian company specializing in carbon capture technology. Leveraging its expertise from the Aker Group, a global leader in offshore engineering, Aker Carbon Capture has developed modular carbon capture systems that are both cost-effective and scalable… With a solid financial foundation and strategic partnerships, Aker Carbon Capture is well-positioned to expand its carbon capture solutions globally. The aim is to contribute significantly to the reduction of industrial CO₂ emissions and support the transition to a low-carbon economy. 3. LanzaTech Global, Inc. (LNZA) is a pioneering carbon recycling company that transforms waste carbon emissions into sustainable fuels and chemicals through innovative biotechnology using gas fermentation. Through this process, industrial emissions—rich in carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide—are converted into ethanol and other chemicals… The ethanol produced can serve as a building block for various products, including jet fuel, plastics, and synthetic fibers. With a solid financial foundation bolstered by recent capital raises and strategic partnerships, LanzaTech is well-positioned to expand its carbon recycling solutions globally, creating sustainable products from waste carbon. 4. Occidental Petroleum Corporation (OXY) is a major player in the oil and gas industry. However, in recent years, the company has been transforming itself into a leader in carbon management solutions.  Occidental has embraced Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology, which removes CO₂ directly from the atmosphere. In partnership with Carbon Engineering, Occidental is constructing the world's largest DAC facility in Texas, a groundbreaking project that will play a significant role in achieving global emission reduction targets… Occidental's approach is an example of how traditional energy companies are evolving to embrace sustainability. By combining its existing expertise in oil extraction with innovative carbon capture methods, Occidental is paving the way for a future where fossil fuel extraction can coexist with carbon reduction technologies. 5. Equinor ASA (EQNR) formerly known as Statoil, is a Norwegian energy giant that has diversified its portfolio to include renewable energy sources like wind power. It has also been at the forefront of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technologies for over 25 years… Equinor is a key player in the Northern Lights project, a pioneering initiative in Norway aimed at developing a large-scale carbon capture and storage infrastructure… Equinor has decades of experience in offshore oil and gas exploration. Its deep-rooted knowledge of energy infrastructure is key to its success in developing large-scale carbon capture and storage solutions. With the potential to store the equivalent of 1,000 years of Norwegian CO₂ emissions beneath the seabed, Equinor's initiatives are pivotal in supporting global climate goals.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (3) Still, on the theme of energy-related investments is this article titled 3 Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy in 2025 and Hold for Decades. It's by James Brumley and found on fool.com. Here is some of what Mr. Brumley says about his picks. “1. Cameco (NYSE: CCJ) one of the planet's top suppliers of uranium, with access to plenty of high-grade reserves. Its two chief mining operations in Saskatchewan, Canada, are currently jointly capable of producing a total of 43 million pounds of high-grade uranium per year, but both could support more output at only marginally more cost… Do prepare for continued volatility from Cameco stock that reflects the continued volatility of uranium prices -- although maybe not quite as much as you might expect. Confidence in nuclear power as a clean source of electricity is slowly but surely improving, leveling out these swings. 2. Brookfield Renewable (BEPC -2.65%) (BEP -1.29%). (Yes, a second recommendation in this podcast.) If you feel confident that renewable energy as an industry is investment-worthy but you don't know where to start, consider a stake in Brookfield Renewable Corp. With it, you'll own a little of everything the business encompasses… There is one detail worth pointing out there. That is, this is not Brookfield Asset Management (BAM.TO), Brookfield Corporation (BN), or Brookfield Wealth Solutions (BNT). Although all of these companies are related, Brookfield Renewable is the only one with direct exposure to the alternative energy market. The others are simply involved in the management and marketing of Brookfield Renewable. 3. First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR) First Solar stock is down nearly 40% from its June peak largely on concerns that President-elect Donald Trump isn't as supportive of solar power as his predecessor was. And maybe he isn't. The solar tax credits that boosted the business under President Joe Biden's watch are anything but guaranteed to last through Trump's tenure… The irony is that the analyst community is still calling for strong growth from First Solar regardless of who's occupying the White House. Last year's projected top-line growth of 29% is expected to be followed by 32% growth this year, followed by 21% revenue growth next year. Even producing half of that anticipated growth should shake this stock out of its current funk and rekindle a long-term advance.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (4) And, yes, another analyst article on the renewable energy theme — but with a very different angle. It's titled 2 Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy in 2025 and Hold for Decades by Leo Sun on aol.com. It was originally published on fool.com. “1. NuScale Power (NYSE: SMR) produces the only small modular reactors (SMRs) that have been certified with a Standard Design Approval (SDA) from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). Its SMRs can be installed in vessels that are just 9 feet (2.7m) wide and 65 feet (20m) tall -- which makes them much easier to deploy than larger nuclear reactors. NuScale's modular designs are prefabricated, delivered, and assembled on-site. That approach reduces the costs and construction time of a working nuclear reactor. Its current reactor clusters are certified for up to 55 megawatts of electricity… NuScale's stock has already surged nearly 650% over the past 12 months in anticipation of that approval, but it still trades more than 20% below its all-time high from last November. Analysts only expect its revenue to rise 4% to $24 million in 2024. 2. CleanSpark (NASDAQ: CLSK) develops modular microgrids for wind, solar, and other renewable energy sources. These microgrids can be deployed as stand-alone systems or plugged into existing energy grids, and they're used to funnel energy into storage systems, backup generators, and load management solutions. CleanSpark initially developed these green energy systems for other companies, but it evolved into a Bitcoin miner upon acquiring ATL Data Centers in May 2021. It upgraded ATL's mining facilities with its technology to boost their efficiency and demonstrate that it was possible to mine Bitcoins with low-carbon energy… From fiscal 2024 to fiscal 2027, analysts expect its revenue and adjusted EBITDA to grow at a CAGR of 36% and 22%... That makes it a great long-term play if you expect Bitcoin's price to keep climbing and the renewable energy market to keep expanding.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Additional article not covered due to time constraints 1.

In this episode we're diving deep into the fascinating world of carbon recycling with a trailblazer who's reshaping how we think about waste and sustainability. Our guest is Dr. Jennifer Holmgren, CEO of LanzaTech—a company on a mission to transform our biggest environmental challenge into an economic opportunity. LanzaTech is pioneering a process that takes industrial emissions—the kind of harmful gases that typically contribute to climate change—and recycles them into valuable products like fuels, fabrics, and everyday consumer goods. The concept might sound like science fiction, but it's already science fact. LanzaTech's technology captures carbon emissions from sources like steel mills, refineries, and even municipal solid waste, then feeds those emissions to specially engineered microbes. These microbes act like tiny factories, converting carbon pollution into useful materials. Imagine jet fuel made from industrial waste or yoga pants created from captured carbon—it's not just possible; it's happening. In fact, at the very end of 2024, LanzaTech received a holiday gift from the federal government: a $200 million award from the Dept. of Energy. In this episode, Jennifer and I discuss the path LanzaTech took, including raising $400 million and taking 13 years prior to commercializing its first product. We also touch on her personal journey from her birth in Colombia to her taking the helm at LanzaTech. As you'll hear, this isn't just about reducing emissions; it's about completely rethinking the role of waste in our economy. LanzaTech's vision is one where carbon is no longer a liability but an asset—a resource that can be reused and recycled, over and over again. It's a powerful example of how businesses can align profitability with purpose, and it's precisely the kind of story that inspires hope in these challenging times. So, whether you're an entrepreneur, an environmentalist, or just someone curious about the future of our planet, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.  Discussed in this episode Jennifer recommends reading Quiet by Susan Cain. LanzaTech awarded up to $200 million in federal cash from the DOE LanzaTech is backed by Khosla Ventures. More about Jennifer Holmgren, PhD Dr. Jennifer Holmgren is CEO of LanzaTech. Under her guidance, LanzaTech is developing a variety of platform chemicals and fuels, including the world's first alternative jet fuel derived from industrial waste gases. Given her integral role in the development of this alternative jet fuel, she is also a Director and the Chair of the LanzaJet Board of Directors.  Prior to LanzaTech, Jennifer was VP and General Manager of the Renewable Energy and Chemicals business unit at UOP LLC, a Honeywell Company. While at UOP, she was a key driver of UOP's leadership in low carbon aviation biofuels, and under her management, UOP technology became instrumental in producing nearly all the initial fuels used by commercial airlines and the military for testing and certification of alternative aviation fuel. Jennifer is the author or co-author of 50 U.S. patents and more than 30 scientific publications, and is a member of the National Academy of Engineering. In 2003, she was the first woman awarded the Malcolm E. Pruitt Award from the Council for Chemical Research (CCR).

Carbon is everywhere, not just in the air around us, but also in the materials we use everyday.We talk a lot about reducing the overall amount of carbon in the atmosphere through approaches like avoided emissions or removal. But, what do we do in a world where GHG avoidance and removals are not at the scale required to tackle all of the emissions that come from heavy industry like agriculture and steel?Research from the Ellen McArthur Foundation shows that switching our energy use to more efficient and renewable sources would only prevent 55% of global greenhouse gas emissions. In order to truly decarbonize, how do we tackle the other 45% of emissions?Can we recycle carbon dioxide and monoxide? Instead of the linear fossil fuel based - make, use, waste life cycle, what if we could take CO and CO2, produced by heavy industry and turn it into the building blocks of our everyday lives, like the plastic container holding your cosmetics, your clothes, or the fuel powering your flight. In a truly circular economy, we could produce many of the materials we need from greenhouse gasses, like carbon, thus eliminating waste and pollution, and reducing greenhouse gasses across the supply chain. In order to achieve this vision, we need solutions that take emissions and byproducts of industries like agriculture and steel, and turn them into usable materials. And that is exactly what Jennifer Holmgren, CEO of LanzaTech, is building.  SponsorsWatt It Takes is brought to you by Microsoft.The $1 Billion Microsoft Climate Innovation Fund is investing in innovative technologies that have the potential for meaningful, measurable climate impact by 2030.

Clean energy technologies saw a record influx of investment last year: $1.7 trillion in total. But that still falls short of what's needed to meet climate goals. With venture capital investment now falling, it's increasingly difficult for startups to gain traction.  Claire Curry, global head of technology, industry & innovation at BloombergNEF, follows the journeys of many young companies in the clean-tech space. On this week's Zero, Curry tells Akshat Rathi about the kinds of innovative pathways that have proven successful. LanzaTech, for example, a nine-year-old carbon recycling technology company, works with Chinese steel companies looking for low-emissions solutions. H2 Green Steel also scaled quickly, in part through agreements reached with Mercedes Benz, IKEA and other big brands looking to access low-carbon steel. Curry explains how these approaches could be replicated by other startups. Listen to Zero's episode about green-iron startup Electra. Listen to Switched On's episodes on clean-energy investments and plastic recycling. Zero is a production of Bloomberg Green. Our producers are Mythili Rao, Magnus Henriksson, and Sommer Saadi.

In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we're looking at the role that technological innovation will play in finding solutions for the low-carbon energy transition.   This was a big topic at S&P Global's annual CERAWeek conference in Houston, Texas, and we sat down on the sidelines of the event with two CEOs running emerging technology companies that seek to facilitate the transition.   We talk with Dr. Jennifer Holmgren about the outlook for innovation. Jennifer is CEO of Lanzatech, a cleantech company that is applying its carbon recycling technology to capture carbon and transform waste carbon into sustainable raw materials for everyday products. And as part of our ongoing Women in Leadership series of this podcast, she also talks about her path to the CEO role and shares her career advice.  "There were lots of challenges from the first time I told somebody that I wanted to be a chemical engineer, and he literally laughed at me, until today," Jennifer says.   She gives the following advice: "Don't carry any baggage with you. Laugh it off because baggage slows you down and we're not on a journey where you can afford to be slowed down.”  In the episode, we also speak to Dr. Enass Abo-Hamed, CEO and co-founder of H2GO Power, which is working to help facilitate the safe storage of green hydrogen. Enass talks about the challenges of green hydrogen and her advice for young entrepreneurs seeking to pursue similar projects.  S&P Global's CERAWeek conference is one of the biggest events in the energy industry, convening global leaders to talk about energy and transition strategies.   Listen to more CERAWeek coverage here: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/podcasts/at-ceraweek-mapping-one-large-utility-s-energy-transition-path  Here: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/podcasts/ceraweek-one-big-bank-s-solution-to-the-energy-tech-finance-gap  And here: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/podcasts/ceraweek-how-one-of-the-world-s-largest-mining-companies-approaches-energy-transition-nature  Read S&P Global Sustainable1's new research "Women in leadership: What's the holdup?" here: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/insights/featured/special-editorial/women-in-leadership-what-s-the-holdup   Listen to our podcast episode featuring Dr. Amani Abou-Zeid, Commissioner for Infrastructure and Energy of the African Union Commission here: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/podcasts/women-in-leadership-what-we-learned-talking-diversity-with-leaders-around-the-globe   Tune into the podcast next week for more highlights from the event.     This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1, a part of S&P Global.       Copyright ©2024 by S&P Global       DISCLAIMER       By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

Fossil carbon is not just burnt for energy. It's also used as an ingredient for millions of everyday products. But what if, rather than extracting new fossil carbon from the ground, the carbon could be sourced from waste and kept in circulation. That's exactly what a company called LanzaTech is doing. For almost two decades LanzaTech has been using a synthetic biology process to recycle carbon waste and create new products. They went public earlier this year and provide a fascinating example of a climate tech company with a bold vision for transforming how our material world is built.

Welcome to Bankless, where we explore the frontier of internet money and internet finance. In this 8-episode series, we are exploring some new frontiers. New frontiers in new technologies, all of which are poised to completely revolutionize the world and change everything about the operating system that society is currently running. Synthetic biology is a fascinating field that combines biology, engineering, and computer science to design and construct new biological systems. By manipulating and reprogramming the DNA of living organisms, scientists can create new functions and traits that do not occur naturally. It's like rewriting the instruction manual of life itself, similar to how we write computer code. In this video, you'll hear from three leaders in the synthetic biology industry—Drew Endy, John Cumbers, and Jennifer Holmgren—who will expand our understanding and imagination of this exciting field. Keep an eye out as we roll out the rest of these boundary-pushing episodes! ------

Jennifer has over 20 years of experience in the energy sector, including a proven track record in the development and commercialization of fuels and chemicals technologies. Prior to LanzaTech, Jennifer was VP and General Manager of the Renewable Energy and Chemicals business unit at UOP LLC, a Honeywell Company. Under her management, UOP technology became instrumental in producing nearly all of the initial fuels used by commercial airlines and the military for testing and certification of alternative aviation fuel. Today, under Jennifer's guidance, LanzaTech is working towards deploying carbon capture and reuse facilities globally to make fuels and chemicals from waste carbon. https://lanzatech.com/ https://nexuspmg.com/

The Emission Trading Systems is the cap-and-trade carbon market that Europe has been using since 2005 to decarbonize its economy. Companies have to pay to pollute, and this week that price hit an all-time high as it traded for over 100 euros/ton. In the first segment of today's show Na'im Merchant and Asa Kamer discuss the significance of that milestone, what it might mean for the CDR industry, and news that Lanzatech became the first carbon capture company ever to go public. On the other side of the planet a different government made steps towards capitalizing on the money flowing towards carbon markets. Earlier this month, Alaska's GOP Governor proposed a package of bills that would expand the state's ability to store carbon via both forestry projects and underground storage of CO2 if passed. Will these ambitions contribute to actually increasing carbon sequestration? On the second segment of today's show we explored this topic with one of the people behind Alaska's push toward carbon management: the state Department of Natural Resource's Deputy Commissioner John Crowther. Radhika is out this week, this episode is hosted by CRN producer Asa Kamer.

Though consumers have seen egg prices come down, earlier price surges and the pandemic have fueled a boom of raising backyard chickens, even in the city. Plus: Bally's temporary Chicago casino at Medinah Temple clears gambling panel step, but faces hurdle on buying Tribune site; Ford further cuts Rivian shares; Clean-tech startup LanzaTech goes public; and Illinois craft brewers want to send beer straight to your home.

Carbon capture technology has long been talked about, and it is finally in operation with LanzaTech among the pioneers. Its plants are turning potential emissions into clothing, household goods and sustainable fuels. SPAC cash is now also an accelerant in this new process as the company announced a $1.7 billion combination with AMCI II last March. This week, we caught up with LanzaTech CEO Dr. Jennifer Holmgren. She explained how LanzaTech has worked to strengthen its SPAC transaction since announcement and why it was a strategic decision from the start. She also discusses how LanzaTech has structured its own business model to provide multiple channels of recurring revenues as well as what new carbon negative products you'll be seeing on shelves soon.    

Today on the show we have Dr. Jennifer Holmgren, CEO of the most important carbon recycling company in climate tech, LanzaTech. LanzaTech takes CO2 and turns it into useful materials like clothing (think Zara), jet fuel (sustainable aviation fuel), and shoes (including with the popular Swiss shoe company On).  Climate tech companies like LanzaTech often have two distinct types of problems to solve: physical and financial. We've covered a range of physical hurdles climate tech companies face on the show previously, but for the first time on the net zero life we cover the financial hurdles. That's what makes this episode so special and why LanzaTech's $500M capital raise is so important. Because they are in the midst of crossing that financial valley of death and if they succeed, they will build the path for others to follow. Jennifer was the first woman awarded the Malcolm E. Pruitt Award from the Council for Chemical Research . In 2010, she was the recipient of the Leadership Award from the Civil Aviation Alternative Fuels Initiative for her work in establishing the technical and commercial viability of sustainable aviation biofuels. Jennifer currently serves on the board of The National Renewable Energy Laboratory Biofuels Advisory Committee. She holds a B.Sc. degree from Harvey Mudd College, a Ph.D. from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a MBA from the University of Chicago.

Welcome to The Net Zero Life Season 4, I'm Nathan Zvi. The question driving us this season is “How Do We Measure Impact?” Our guests are climate leaders from all over the private sector. Their expertise intersects with a host of different climate challenges, and each of them need to be measured. Our guests are founders, authors, CEOs, board members, and writers. They represent climate science, journalism, consumer goods, water tech, climate tech, and venture capital. Together, we discuss this theme along with their climate origin stories, first principles of their work, and, of course, how their organizations are building a net zero future.  In every episode we start with their why? Like Brian Trudel. How does a lifelong energy analyst become the co-founder of a net-zero focused incubator? Trudel: "It dawned on me the oil and gas sector has a problem … you basically have an existential threat on your hands.” We also cover the first principles of technical and non-technical topics, such as how to finance a critical, but as-of-yet unproven, circular economy solution at scale. Jennifer Holmgren: "I think there's this—ridiculous frankly—fight between the people who think that the unicorns will magically appear, and the world will bend the carbon curve. And the people who say, 'I just got to take a step, help me take one step. That will give me a reduction. Then I'll take another step and then I'll take another step and eventually we'll solve this problem.'" This is the question animating Jennifer Holmgren when she and her company LanzaTech recycle CO2 by making clothes and shoes with Zara and On. Every guest, and the organizations they come from, define impact differently, and how they measure that impact differs as well.  And while your actions and how you measure their impact may differ from what our guests or society believe is best, these ten episodes in season four will help you consider your role in bringing about a net zero future.  Hal Harvey: “Guilt might work well for the Catholic Church, but not right set of solutions for solving climate change.” And maybe, just maybe, help you make a small change that benefits the world. The first episode comes out next Tuesday, if you can't wait until then, check out the interviews from our incredible guests from seasons 1-3.  I'm Nathan Zvi, and this is the net zero life. I'll talk to you next week. ******** Keep up with the show by following The Net Zero Life on Twitter and Instagram (@thenetzerolife).

LanzaJet is the sustainable aviation fuel spin-off of the almost eponymous LanzaTech, an American firm that is developing and deploying technologies to turn different sorts of feedstock and waste, into biofuels.Of the different processes and pathways available to make sustainable aviation fuel, LanzaJet is focusing on the Alcohol-to-Jet one, which uses ethanol previously produced from organic feedstocks. LanzaJet's technology has caught the eye of some of the most prominent corporate players. I am not talking only of airlines, such as British Airways, which is also an investor in LanzaJet, but also firms like Shell, Suncor and Microsoft, to name a few.Because the world can't get enough sustainable aviation fuel right now, LanzaJet is currently busy planning to open a string of plants across the world. Two plants are already under way in the US, with another one in the UK coming up next and other projects in Europe and Asia also in the pipeline. Breakthrough Energy, a decarbonization fund set by Bill Gates, is also supporting LanzaJet's vision and recently announced it was gibing it a $50M grant to help accelerate these projects. What have all those major companies seen in LanzaJet? What is the outlook for the sustainable aviation fuel market? How can the Alcohol-to-Jet production technology help decarbonize flying? Join me for an in-depth conversation about LanzaJet and the future of the sustainable aviation fuel industry, with Jimmy Samartzis, CEO of LanzaJet!

Das sind die ecozentrisch Wochenchampions in der 22. KW: Volvo will ersten E-LKW aus fossilfreiem Stahl auf den Markt bringenEin Elektro-LKW aus fossilfreiem Stahl:Volvo Trucks hat angekündigt, dass seine großen Elektro-Lkw bald Teile aus „fossilfreiem“ Stahl enthalten werden. Dies ist Teil des Plans des Autoherstellers, den CO2-Fußabdruck seiner emissionsfreien Fahrzeugpalette zu verbessern. Ab dem dritten Quartal 2022 soll Stahl, der bisher noch mit fossilen Brennstoffen hergestellt wird, durch Stahl ersetzt werden, der durch ein wasserstoffbasiertes Verfahren gewonnen wird. Damit will man, nach eigenen Angaben, der erste LKW-Hersteller der Welt sein, der Fahrzeuge aus grünem Stahl verkauft. Man beginne damit, den fossilfreien Stahl für bestimmte Teile zu verbauen, nach und nach sollen auch alle anderen Stahlteile ersetzt werden. Volvo Trucks nimmt sich vor, bis 2040 CO2-neutral zu werden. https://www.greenbiz.com/article/volvo-preps-launch-first-electric-trucks-made-fossil-fuel-free-steelLanzaTech/Danone mit Durchbruch bei der Gewinnung von PET aus CO2Plastik-Grundstoff aus abgeschiedenem Kohlenstoff:Das Unternehmen LanzaTech hat, mit Unterstützung von Danone, eine bahnbrechende Methode zur Herstellung von PET aus abgeschiedenen Kohlenstoff- Emissionen entdeckt. Ein Konsortium, zu dem auch diese beiden Unternehmen gehören, hat ein -Verfahren entwickelt, bei dem Kohlenstoffemissionen aus Stahlwerken oder vergaste Abfallbiomasse direkt in einen Schlüsselbaustein von PET umwandeln. Dies geschieht mit Hilfe eines Bakteriums und auf direktem Wege, also ohne einen Umweg über ein Ethanol-Zwischenprodukt. LanzaTech betont, dass es sich hier um einen technologischen Durchbruch handelt. Man könne dadurch viele Umweltauswirkungen der Produktion reduzieren und das in vielen Bereichen, einschließlich in der Verpackungs-und Textilindustrie. https://www.businessgreen.com/news/4050411/game-changer-lanzatech-transforms-captured-carbon-plasticChoco: Plattform zur Vermeidung von LebensmittelabfallEine Plattform zur Vermeidung von Lebensmittel-Abfällen:Das will das Berliner Start-up Choco aufbauen.

Carbon recycling takes our polluting carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide and, with the help of bacteria, turns them into ethanol. This can replace oil as the basis for carbon-based chemicals industries (e.g., fertilizers, plastics, clothing, health and beauty products, etc.), as well as offering sustainable fuel and animal feed. Jennifer Holmgren, CEO of LanzaTech, joins Azeem Azhar to share her vision of the future where greenhouse gases provide a core contribution to our sustainable life.

Our guest, Bill Niaura, Director of Sustainable Materials and Circular Economy at the Bridgestone Americas Technology Center, is working to create a circular economy in tires. Tokyo-based Bridgestone, the world's largest tire company based on revenue, recently announced a new partnership with carbon recycling firm LanzaTech to introduce a technology that gasifies — breaks down — the rubber in tires to feed to bacteria.  The process produces ethanol, a fuel that can also be used to make plastic and other products. They are also working to extract a precursor chemical for use in making new rubber and, by extension, new tires. Bill also explains how Bridgestone is exploring new sources of natural rubber, including the desert plant guayule that the company recently introduced in racing tires.Even as the automobile changes and becomes electric, some things will stay the same. Tires and the waste associated with them will continue to be a feature of the driving experience. Americans spend approximately $43 billion annually on more than 200 million replacement tires for passenger vehicles, according to the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine's National Research Council. Globally, more than one billion tires are disposed of each year, and 40% of them end up in landfills. With all the controversy about plastic recycling, we wanted to get the details of this new process and understand how fast it could scale up. You can learn more about Bridgestone's tire recycling efforts at https://www.bridgestoneamericas.com/

For this episode of the podcast, we feature a panel discussion with AB InBev's Global VP of Sustainability Andre Fourie & LanzaTech's Chief Sustainability Officer Freya Burton about how companies and industry leaders can collaborate to push climate-positive actions; and the role of innovation in solving recurring sustainability issues. AB InBev's portfolio comprises over 500 beer brands and includes global brands Budweiser, Corona, Stella Artois, and numerous multi-country brands. LanzaTech is a market-leading innovator in carbon capture & transformation. They have invented a technology that turns pollution into valuable raw material commodities, recycling a "liability" into practical and sustainable new products. This conversation took place at our most recent event, What's Next Now: Sustainability – An Innovator's Guide to Climate Action.

Das sind die ecozentrisch Wochenchampions in der 20. KW: Bridgestone startet neues, emissionsärmeres KreislaufsystemDen Kreis beim Reifenrecycling geschlossen:Bridgestone will, mit einem unternehmensweiten Fokus auf Nachhaltigkeit, eine neue Strategie anwenden, um neue Reifen aus recyceltem Material herzustellen.Dazu hat man eine Kooperation mit Lanza Tech geschlossen. Bei dem neuen Verfahren werden Bakterien verwendet, um Gummi abzubauen, Kohlenstoff einzufangen und das Rohmaterial für neues Gummi zu schaffen. Die Innovation von LanzaTech besteht in der Umwandlung von Abfallmaterialien in Ethanol, das typischerweise aus frischem Kohlenstoff aus fossilen Brennstoffen gewonnen wird. Bridgestone betreibt bereits seit Jahren Reifenrecycling, bei den älteren Verfahren wird jedoch auch weiterhin viel CO2 ausgestoßen.Mit dem neuen Verfahren will man diesen auf ein Minimum reduzieren. https://www.greenbiz.com/article/bridgestones-tires-are-going-circularBen&Jerry's will Treibhausgase der Milchwirtschaft verringernProjekt Mootopia für weniger Treibhausgas-Emissionen:Damit startet die Kult-Eismarke Ben&Jerry's ein Programm, um auf ihre Zulieferer einzuwirken. Man will damit erreichen, dass die Milchwirtschaft, die die Grundstoffe für Ben&Jerry's-Eis liefert , weniger Emissionen ausstößt. 15 Betriebe in den USA und den Niederlanden arbeiten am Pilotprojekt mit. Hier will man durch technologische Neuerungen bis Ende 2024 die Treibhausgas-Emissionen halbieren.

Betreiber ist das britische Start-up-Unternehmen Urban-Air Port, dass den Flughafen im Auftrag der Stadtverwaltung in Betrieb genommen hat. Man will damit das Potential urbaner Luftmobilität demonstrieren und zeigen, dass man damit die Luftqualität verbessern und Staus vermeiden kann. Sollte sich das Projekt als Erfolg erweisen, könnte es Modelcharakter für viele ähnliche E-Flughäfen weltweit haben. Laut Urban-Air Port ist der Mangel an geeigneter Infrastruktur eines der größten Hindernisse für die Entwicklung von elektrischen Fluggeräten für die urbane Nutzung. Der Flughafen in Coventry ist so konzipiert, dass es vollständig autonom ist und sich in Elektrofahrzeuge integrieren lässt, um ein vollständig nachhaltiges öffentliches Verkehrsnetz zu schaffen. Und es ist auch einfach zu bauen. Das gesamte Projekt dauerte von der Planung bis zur Fertigstellung nur 15 Monate.https://www.greenbiz.com/article/worlds-first-airport-flying-cars-and-drones-has-just-landedGorfion Green Energy baut PV-Anlagen auf 60 JugendherbergenGroßoffensive für Solarenergie im Beherbergungssektor:In Bayern will der Jugendherbergsverband seine 60 Häuser komplett mit Photovoltaik-Anlagen ausstatten.

Now more than ever, going green is permeating the industry. Automakers are required to meet certain sustainability requirements, which means everything that goes into creating a vehicle–ahem, the tires–are held to higher sustainability targets, too. Just ask Bridgestone, whose goal is to have 100% carbon neutrality and 100% renewable resources in its tires by 2050. So, how are they going to achieve that?Slowly but surely, the foundation for a more sustainable future is being laid out as you read this. Here's just one example: For more than a decade, Bridgestone has been researching the guayule plant to use as a domestic source of natural rubber, and now the first Firestone Firehawk race tire made with guayule natural rubber (grown and extracted at the company's guayule R&D facilities in Arizona) will debut at this year's Indy 500 on May 29. Just last month, the company partnered with LanzaTech, a carbon capture and transformation company, to co-develop the first dedicated end-of-life tire recycling process. To learn more about Bridgestone's guayule research and end-of-life tire recycling initiatives, we spoke with Bill Niaura, director of sustainable materials and circular economy for Bridgestone Americas Technology Center. In this episode of What's Treading with Tire Review, presented by AAPEX, Bill dives into why Bridgestone is investing in these various sustainability initiatives and how creating a circular economy is in the tiremaker's future. EPISODE OVERVIEW- An update on Bridgestone's research into guayule natural rubber (1:00)- Why tiremakers are investing in alternate sources of natural rubber (2:11)- How Bridgestone and LanzaTech will work together on end-of-life tire recycling and how the carbon transformation process starts from the guy of a rabbit (8:33)- How Bridgestone's relationship with its dealers will help its sustainability goals trickle down the tire industry (14:15)More on Bridgestone's sustainability goals: https://www.bridgestone.com/corporate/news/2021062901.htmlMore on AAPEX: www.aapexshow.comYou can also subscribe to What's Treading with Tire Review on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify and Stitcher.

Sure, lots of business leaders have big dreams. But when Jennifer Holmgren tells you she wants to turn pollution into both jet fuel and yoga pants, she means it. And she's done it. Her company, LanzaTech, has refined a technology to recycle carbon. And, as she explains, they can pull right up to a super-polluting steel mill and start gobbling up their emissions. Jennifer talks about her long-running quest to keep fossil fuels in the ground, her concerns about the role politics plays, and why - years ago - she said yes to a CEO gig on the eve of retirement.

Jennifer has over 20 years of experience in the energy sector, including a proven track record in the development and commercialization of fuels and chemicals technologies. Prior to LanzaTech, Jennifer was VP and General Manager of the Renewable Energy and Chemicals business unit at UOP LLC, a Honeywell Company. Under her management, UOP technology became instrumental in producing nearly all of the initial fuels used by commercial airlines and the military for testing and certification of alternative aviation fuel. Today, under Jennifer's guidance, LanzaTech is working towards deploying carbon capture and reuse facilities globally to make fuels and chemicals from waste carbon. https://lanzatech.com/ https://nexuspmg.com/

Indian Oil Corp. (IndianOil), a Fortune 500 company, remains a clear lubricants market leader in India, three decades after India deregulated its lubricants market. In this interview, Dr. SSV Ramakumar describes his journey from a young chemist fresh from obtaining his doctorate in chemistry from the Indian Institute of Technology-Roorkee to becoming the esteemed director of R&D, as well as Planning & Business Development, at IndianOil. In 1992, IndianOil had to protect its market share from private players and multinational oil companies who re-entered the Indian lubricants market following deregulation. “Everybody's gain was our loss. They were eating from our pie. Our pie was being sliced up. It was almost a monopoly at that time and we were enjoying a market share of tending 60%,” he recalled. Deregulation changed IndianOIl's R&D's focus to developing “customer centric, cost-efficient products, products with differentiation." Ramakumar also narrates India's recent transition from Bharat Stage IV to Bharat Stage VI, skipping altogether the intermediate stage, the equivalent of Euro V, in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. Without fanfare, Ramakumar said, IndianOil successfully switched all of its refineries, pipelines, terminals, oil depots and retail outlets, to producing and distributing BS-VI compliant petrol and diesel fuels at the stroke of midnight on April 1, 2020. To illustrate how huge this undertaking was, IndianOil owns 11 of India's 23 refineries, with a total capacity of 80 million metric tons per annum. IndianOil also owns 15,000 kilometers (km) of the total 23,000 km pipeline in the country. Additionally, the state-owned oil company owns 35,000 out of the 60,000 retail outlets in the country. Ramakumar, who was recently conferred a Fellowship by the National Academy of Engineering, is the recipient of numerous awards. Besides serving on the board of IndianOil, Ramakumar is also on the boards of Lanzatech, USA; Green Gas Ltd.; IndianOil Total Pvt. Ltd.; IOT Biogas Pvt. Ltd.; IndOil Montney Ltd., Canada, etc. He also presides over several national scientific societies, including the International Council of Internal Combustion Engines, India Chapter; Indian Society of Fuels and Lubricants; National Lubricating Grease Institute, Indian Chapter; and the Tribology Society of India. He also spearheads Start-Up initiatives of IndianOil. Learn about IndianOil's journey, especially its efforts to decarbonize, by listening to this podcast.

What do Glenfiddich whisky, yoga pants and a trash-burning waste-to-heat plant in Europe have in common? They're all part of efforts to use emerging technologies to tackle climate change.  As companies and countries around the world pursue net zero targets, one big question is: How do you ensure the carbon removal technologies we will need 20 to 30 years down the road are available, affordable and easily scaled? In this episode of ESG Insider, we bring you the second part in our miniseries about emerging climate technologies. We hear how Scotch whisky maker Glenfiddich uses a part of its distillery process to power delivery trucks. We explore how biotech company LanzaTech is using bacteria to recycle gases into ethanol that is used to create everything from yoga pants to shampoo bottles to low-carbon aviation fuels.   And lastly, we learn how Fortum Oslo Varme's waste-to-energy trash-burning plant in Norway is being converted to capture carbon emissions and send them to be permanently stored deep under the North Sea. This technology is often referred to as bioenergy with carbon capture and storage, or BECCS, and can be used to help tackle climate change when done in a sustainable manner.  Photo credit: William Grant & Sons 

Shayle has been brewing up an investment thesis around how decarbonization will create stratification in traditional commodity sectors, like chemicals and materials. If you can produce the same thing in the same cost range -- but you can do so in a CO2-free or carbon-negative -- you'll reap the rewards.Lanzatech is a great test case for that thesis, as well as a great story to tell about the history of this sector. It was founded in 2005 as a biofuels company. Now, it captures industrial waste gasses, such as CO2 and CO, and recycles them into the chemicals used to make everything from plastics to medical supplies to fabric for Lululemon. It has even spun out an entire company focused on jet fuel.Shayle talks to CEO Dr. Jennifer Holmgren about carbon recycling and the big dent it could make in global greenhouse gas emissions. They break down the economics of competing with undifferentiated ethanol, jet fuel, and chemicals and the brand interest driving interest in carbon recycling tech.Jennifer hints at the potential for applying genetics expertise from medicine to industrial biotechnology; one day Lanzatech hopes to produce acetone, isopropyl alcohol and other valuable chemicals directly from its carbon-eating microbes. She reflects on leading one of the few companies to survive booms and busts of cleantech over the years. And she explains why the Lanzatech team decided not to ask their bacteria to do cartwheels.

This week on Circular Business Podcast's weekly gupshup with The Circular Collective we explore a fascinating technology by LanzaTech who are pacing the world towards a Circular Carbon Economy. They have developed a sophisticated brewery, a gas fermentation process that turns pollution and emission from factories into fuel that powers cars and soon airplanes. To put that into perspective, visualize a beer fermentation process..now instead of converting sugars and yeast to ethanol, the company uses a biological catalyst to ferment waste gas emissions into ethanol. AMAZING right? Their technology has the potential to displace 30% of crude oil use today and reduce global CO2 emissions by 10%. So how do they do it? A bacteria found in the gut of a rabbit can now help cars & airplanes run in a more eco-friendly way. The bacteria, identified by LanzaTech, helps turn factory carbon emissions, a.k.a. Pollution, into ethanol. For a few decades, Ethanol has been blended with gasoline or petrol to reduce the amount of fuel used by cars. Today, Ethanol is typically made from corn, sugar cane or grasses, which take a lot of land to grow. So just imagine the amount of efficiency that this technology brings in just by making ethanol by capturing pollution. They have been working with Virgin Atlantic since 2011, to formulate that jet fuel made from carbon waste gases. The first batch of this sustainable jet fuel was used on a commercial flight for the very first time in 2018– It was the Virgin Atlantic's VS16 flight from Orlando to London Gatwick, operated by a Boeing 747 aircraft. Airlines is one such industry which is tough to decarbonize and with this innovation one can visualize the transformation it can bring on the world we know today. What fascinates me is how they see a future where a steel mill, for example, would make lightweight steel for parts of a plane, and then use production emissions to make fuel for that plane as well as chemicals to produce the synthetic fibers, plastics and rubbers needed for the body and cabin of the aircraft. Now this is the circular economy in action through waste mitigation, resource efficiency and value addition through carbon reductions. LanzaTech's raw material comes from the waste gases from Refineries, Cement & Steel plants. Tune into the episode to learn more about this innovation of brewing pollution into ethanol.

This week on, “Inside the Skev,” we sit down with Sean Simpson, the co-founder of Lanzatech. LanzaTech is based in the Illinois Science and Technology Park that is located in Downtown Skokie. Lanzatech is a company that recycles carbon waste from steel mills and other carbon producers and turns it into fuel and chemical by-products. In this episode we discuss what brought Lanzatech from New Zealand to the Chicagoland area and specifically Skokie, and what they do. “Lanzatech’s mission is to turn our global carbon crisis into a feedstock opportunity with the potential to displace 30% of crude oil use today and reduce global CO2 emissions by 10%. By recycling carbon from industrial off-gases; syngas generated from any biomass resource (e.g. municipal solid waste (MSW), organic industrial waste, agricultural waste); and reformed biogas, LanzaTech can reduce emissions and make new products for a circular carbon economy.LanzaTech’s carbon recycling technology is like retrofitting a brewery onto an emission source like a steel mill or a landfill site, but instead of using sugars and yeast to make beer, pollution is converted by bacteria to fuels and chemicals!” They currently have a commercial production facility in China, and in October 2018 fueled a Virgin Atlantic jetliner that flew from Orlando to London.Lanzatech can be found at https://www.lanzatech.com/Please share this episode and tag @lanzatech @downtownskokie @ istplifescience @intersectillinois @intersectillinois1 @CARGlobalCouncil @chicagocouncil #biorevolution  #ClimateActionNow #bioeconomy@BioeconomyForum #cleanenergy #skokie #skokietech #insidetheskev #dreamtown #chicagobusiness #chicagotech @wsj @chicagotribune @crainschicago I’d like to thank several people for help with today’s show.

Host Simon Pound speaks with innovators and commentators focused on the future of New Zealand, with the interview available as both audio and a transcribed excerpt. This week Simon talks to Imche Fouri, general manager innovation and Dr Will Barker, CEO of Mint InnovationTucked away in Parnell is an innovation centre that has helped propel some of the biggest names in local tech forward, although you might not have heard of the place or even some of the names. It’s a truism of the local scene that some companies are easy for the media to cover, and some, like many facets of science and technology, are a little complicated and don’t get the airtime. This hub used to be a DSIR building, and it started to let space to projects with interesting science, and they’ve gone on to be unusually successful. Some you really have heard of, like Rocket Lab. Some you might know, like Lanzatech - one of the great undertold stories of the local scene, and some you will be hearing a lot more of in the future, like Mint Innovation who are turning e-waste into literal gold. The importance of fostering this creativity has meant that what started as an accidental meeting of minds has become very purposeful with the space now operating as Level 2, an incubator specialising in deep technology….. What’s that? Well, to find out and talk tech, incubation and the next crop of great ideas, Imche Fouri, general manager innovation and Dr Will Barker, CEO of Mint Innovation join me now.

A fuel company has created partly recycled jet fuel to reduce carbon emissions. LanzaTech, which began in New Zealand, developed the fuel in the United States. The product is a mixture of the regular fuel used by aircraft and ethanol from waste gases. It currently consists of only 5% recycled substances, but in time, the recycled portion of the product could be increased to as much as up to 50%. The fuel was put to the test on a Virgin Atlantic airplane in October. The plane completed its flight from Orlando to London while running on the fuel, proving that the product works. LanzaTech is confident that the fuel could meet up to 20% of fuel demand in the aviation industry while slashing greenhouse gas emissions by 65% in the future. Impressed by the fuel's capability, Virgin Atlantic requested the UK government to support LanzaTech. In particular, the British airline called for funding for the three recycled fuel manufacturing plants that LanzaTech proposed to build in the United Kingdom by 2025. This project could produce up to 125 million gallons of the partly recycled fuel annually. While revolutionary, LanzaTech was not the first to attempt creating recycled jet fuel. In 2017, British Airways had plans to open a recycled fuel manufacturing plant in Essex. Called the Green Sky Project, the plant would have converted more than 633,000 tons of waste into fuel.  Moreover, it would have been able to cut down carbon emissions equivalent to those released by 150,000 cars. However, the project fell through because it did not have government support.

On the 4th October 2018 Virgin Atlantic´s Boeing 747 flew from Orlando to London Gatwick for the very first time powered by sustainable aviation fuel made of carbon emissions from a steel mill. The fuel was produced by Lanzatech and its CEO Jennifer Holmgren shared with us the remarkable story of the fuel that has potential to change the global economy.
