What if planting trees could be not just good for the planet, but also a profitable business? In this episode, I'm talking with Ben Dell, the founder and CEO of Chestnut Carbon — a company that's raised nearly $400 million, including $250 million of that in 2025, to turn farmland back into thriving native forests across the United States. And he's already forging major carbon removal deals with the likes of Microsoft and Mercedes F1. Ben's journey is a fascinating one: he began his career in oil and gas private equity, helping fossil-fuel companies optimize their operations. But during the pandemic, he had what you might call a carbon epiphany. Seeing how few trustworthy carbon-removal projects existed, he decided to create his own — one that would make measurable, verifiable, and permanent carbon storage not just possible, but investable. In our conversation, Ben explains why carbon is a commodity, and how to prove you've really stored it. He talks about how Chestnut buys up marginal cattle-grazed land and restores it into biodiverse forests — with already more than 17 million trees planted. And he goes over why he proudly calls Chestnut "conservation for profit" — a business model that needs no subsidies, just land, good science, and a lot of patience. Ben also talks about the challenges of scaling a nature-based startup, the importance of grit over glamour, and why he believes restoring forests can be one of America's most investable climate solutions. So if you've ever wondered how capitalism might actually reverse deforestation — not cause it — this episode will give you a hopeful, grounded look at what that future could look like. Discussed in this episode Ben is a managing partner at Kimmeridge. Business Insider profile and a Wall Street Journal profile on Ben's work. Our past episode with author Mike Grunwald. You can see Chestnut's patent, "Systems and methods for forest surveying," here. Chestnut's offtake partnership with Microsoft and a similar agreement with Mercedes F1.

Bernstein, where he was ranked first three times in the Institutional Investor Research Survey for coverage of E&Ps. Mr. Dell was also ranked for Natural Gas and for Oil Services and Equipment coverage. Mr. Dell joined Sanford C. Bernstein in 2003. Prior to joining Bernstein, Mr. Dell was employed at British Petroleum (BP) in its M&A and finance group.

Mr. Dell is currently CEO of Chestnut Carbon, a nature-based carbon removal developer and is on the Board of Caturus HoldCo, LLC., a large private natural gas producer in South Texas. He previously held positions as Chairman of the Board and interim CEO of Civitas Resources, Inc.

Darren Dreger was the first guest on today's show. He gave his initial thoughts on the Oilers win over the Kraken on Saturday, touched on the goaltending for the Oil, the trade market as a whole, how good the Colorado Avalanche are and finished by teeing up tomorrow's game when the Oilers welcome in the Wild. It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day. After the break, we quickly touched on MMMMMM That's Good from The Italian Centre Shop where The Italian Centre Shop actually offered glue guy's daughter a summer job. How good is that? This then led to the boys discussing when they got their first jobs. Mike Tanier was capped off hour two with all the latest insight on NFL week 13 and a preview for tonight's Monday nighter.
On today's episode of the Energy News Beat Stand Up, Michael Tanner and Stu Turley are a few pounds heavier from Thanksgiving!Key issues discussed today:Russia's oil and gas revenue is projected to decline sharply in November, potentially by as much as 35%. This revenue shortfall may be contributing to heightened diplomatic activity around the Russia-Ukraine war.- The potential impact on oil prices if the Russia-Ukraine war were to end. Michael Tanner argues that oil prices would likely go down, as Russia would be able to bring more oil supply back online. Stu Turley suggests prices could rise, as Russia would have more money to fund its operations.- The potential disruptions to oil supply, such as attacks on tankers in the Black Sea and disruptions to the Caspian Pipeline Consortium. However, the hosts seem to downplay the potential impact of these events on oil prices.We also discussed the ongoing dispute between a Texas oil executive and the state of California over offshore oil production. The hosts are critical of California's regulatory environment and its impact on energy production.Chapters 00:01 Intro00:21 Russia's oil and gas revenue may fall by 35%05:58 Caspian Pipeline Consortium halts Black Sea oil loading after Ukraine attack10:14 Texas Oil Mogul at war with Gavin Newsom's Energy Policies14:44 New Fortress Energy gets a 3 billion deal with Puerto Rico20:46 Closing1.Russia's Oil and Gas Revenue May Fall in November by 35%, Reuters Calculations Show2.Caspian Pipeline Consortium Halts Black Sea Oil Loading after Ukraine Attack – And Black Sea tankers hit3.What If Venezuela's Oil Is Shut Down and We Get Peace in Ukraine?

In this Week 48 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, hosts Ingrid and Henning review another eventful period in the global ship recycling market as the industry navigates uneven fundamentals and prepares for the final month of the year. Market conditions across South Asia remained under pressure. Steel plate prices declined in Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and China. The US dollar weakened in all major recycling destinations except Turkey. Freight markets continued their positive momentum, with the Baltic Dry Index rising by 3.2% to its highest level since December 2023. Oil prices stayed soft and ended the week near 59 dollars per ton, almost 14% lower than a year ago. Supply of recycling candidates remains limited as owners continue trading their vessels on strong freight earnings. Global supply tightness contributed to a mixed pricing environment. Smaller lightweight units are often trading below 400 dollars per lightweight ton, while cleaner and larger vessels can still command higher levels in select locations. Bangladesh stayed at the top of the pricing charts. Indicative levels were about 410 dollars per lightweight ton for bulkers, 430 dollars for tankers and 440 dollars for container vessels. Domestic fundamentals, however, weakened again. Local steel plate prices fell by 11 dollars to about 506 dollars per ton. The Taka improved slightly and closed at 122.08. Political tensions remain in the background ahead of the February 2026 elections. Chattogram recorded five new arrivals this week, including LPG units, a bulker and a chemical tanker, totaling 22,459 lightweight tons. Bangladesh now has 21 approved HKC yards, with one more close to completion. India experienced another quiet week. Most tonnage continues to struggle to reach 400 dollars per lightweight ton, keeping Alang behind Bangladesh and Pakistan for preferred vessels. Steel plate prices slipped to about 390 dollars per ton, and the Rupee ended the week around 89.35. Indicative pricing remained about 380 dollars per lightweight ton for bulkers, 400 dollars for tankers and 410 dollars for container ships. Although India reported GDP growth of 8.2 percent, the recycling market continues to face pressure from higher import costs, weaker domestic sentiment and stronger competition from HKC-compliant yards elsewhere. Pakistan recorded the most important development of the week. Prime Green Recyclers in Gadani received HKC approval from Bureau Veritas, the first yard in Pakistan to qualify. Additional yards are undergoing upgrades and are expected to follow in the next few months. Steel plate prices in Pakistan declined by 7 dollars to about 579 dollars per ton. The Rupee firmed slightly to around 282. Indicative pricing stood at 400 dollars per lightweight ton for bulkers, 420 dollars for tankers and 430 dollars for container units. Gadani did not receive any new vessels this week. Turkey remained stable. Prices held around 260 dollars per lightweight ton for bulkers, 270 dollars for tankers and 280 dollars for container vessels. The Turkish Lira weakened further and moved past 42.50 against the US dollar. Inflation remains elevated, although the economy continues to show growth. Recycling activity in Aliaga stayed limited. Across the subcontinent, the market continues to operate with restricted supply, weaker fundamentals and shifting currency conditions. HKC progress in Bangladesh and Pakistan is improving the competitive landscape and setting the stage for stronger compliance and sustainability in the year ahead.

"The original soundtrack I used from Cities & Memory's archive was recorded on a street in Cairo at sunset, outside the Marriott Hotel and Omar Khayyam casino, on Saray El Gezira Street. The famous Gezirah Palace was completed in 1869 by Khedive Ismail, to host dignitaries for the opening of the Suez Canal that year. When I first listened to this piece I heard, among the sounds of car horns and the evening prayer call, the sound of footsteps running down the street and away, and a sharp gasp of breath. The whipping wind in the microphone sounded like a jinn or an Afreet, plural Afareet. It reminded me of my favourite song El Shawarea Hawadeet (the streets are tales) by El Masreyeen from 1977. Lonely streets echoing with memories, stories and Afareet. "In the final piece, you can hear layers of sounds from different eras. The song Al Bulbul Gani (the nightingale came to me) recorded in Cairo in 1906, written by Abd al-hayy Hilmi; the sounds of drumming used in the Cairo Zar women's ritual by the group Mazaher – a ritual to try to find accommodation with demons that have taken over a woman's body. You can hear too, strange sounds of a furious female jinn screaming, shouting and banging at each outrageous sentence from British prime minister Anthony Eden, in his public address in 1956 during the Suez Crisis, where he attempts to justify Britain's bombing of Egypt. Oil is the justification for everything. "As this Cairo tale unfolds, the Arabian riff, or “Melodia Arabe”, sinuously weaves between the Zar drumming. Composed in the 1800's, the Arabian riff, also known as The Streets of Cairo, was a little Orientalist ditty that supposedly evoked the exotic Arab. The quote I am reading is from the 1899 gothic novel, Pharos The Egyptian, by Guy Boothby. It was one of many gothic horror stories of revenge by an angry Egyptian mummy or demon, a fear that haunted the Victorians during this era."

photo by Colin Outridge. The exhibition Change of Scenery, marks the painter's third solo show with the gallery. It is the culmination of a year's worth of travel across the U.S., as Brennan Hinton spent extended time in residency in Corsicana, TX, Martha's Vineyard, MA, and Fishers Island, NY. Brennan Hinton's practice focuses on the sustained act of observation, the plein-air discipline, and painting's ability to capture the essence of a place. The time spent in three distinctive towns, each in its own ways divergent from Brennan Hinton's familiar Ontario, required the artist to meet each place with open eyes and a fresh palette. To situate himself, Brennan Hinton leaned on two formative texts, Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry and Moby Dick by Herman Melville, which are each set in the same landscapes in which he painted. Keiran Brennan Hinton (b. 1992, Toronto) lives and works in Toronto and Elgin, Ontario. He received his BFA from Pratt Institute in 2014 and his MFA from Yale University in 2016. His work is held in the permanent collections of the Ogunquit Museum of Art, Ogunquit, ME and The Dennos Museum Center, Traverse City, MI. Past international solo shows of Brennan Hinton's work include exhibitions at MAKI Gallery, Tokyo, Japan (2022); Thomas Fuchs Gallery, Stuttgart, Germany (2021); Charles Moffett, New York, NY (2023, 2021); Nicholas Robert Gallery, Ontario (2022); and Francesco Pantaleone Gallery, Palermo, Italy (2019) among others. His paintings have been featured in institutional exhibitions at the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto, Ontario; James Castle House, Boise, Idaho; and Katonah Museum of Art, Westchester, NY.

Leslie Smith III (b. 1985) was born in Silver Spring, MD and lives and works in Madison, WI. Smith's interests lie in our conscious effort to alter personal perception. Recent works explore Abstraction's inherent personal and political properties as they relate to broadening notions of Black representation and expression. Smith creates paintings with a mindset that it's possible to present a new interpretation of contemporary abstraction. One with expectations of a different sensibility than that offered by the 1950's and 60's, he offers an alternative worldview; one of inclusion and acceptance. Leslie Smith III earned a BFA at the Maryland Institute College of Art and an MFA at the Yale School of Art. Smith exhibits nationally and internationally. His work can be found in the permanent collections of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta; the Virginia Museum of Fine Art, Richmond; the Birmingham Museum of Art; the Abroms-Engel Institute for the Visual Arts, Birmingham, AL; and the FRAC Auvergne, France.

Negotiations in the COP 30 climate talks are continuing in Belem, Brazil. The headlines are focusing on the divisions between countries that are shaping this year's climate talks. But despite the doom and gloom, there are some practical steps being taken to support the transition towards lower-carbon energy. There may be a notable lack of significant new pledges. But making a pledge is the easy part. Implementation is always harder, and that is the focus for COP30.At COP28 in Dubai two years ago, a goal was set to double the pace of global energy efficiency gains, from 2% a year to over 4% a year. Can we hit that goal, and what will it mean if we do?To debate those questions, Ed Crooks and regular guest Amy Myers Jaffe are joined by Bob Hinkle, whose company Metrus Energy develops and finances efficiency and building energy upgrades across the US. Bob is there at the talks in Belem, and gives his perspective on the mood at the meeting. The presence of American businesses at the conference this year is definitely reduced compared to other recent COPs. But Bob still thinks it was well worth him going. He explains what he gets out of attending the COP, why energy efficiency has a vital role to play in cutting emissions, and why he is still optimistic about climate action.Another initiative that came out of COP28 was the Oil and Gas Decarbonization Charter (ODGC): a group of more than 50 of the world's largest oil and gas companies, which aim to reach near-zero methane emissions and end routine flaring by 2030. Bjorn Otto Sverdrup is head of the secretariat for the OGDC, and he joins us having just returned from Belem.Bjorn Otto tells Amy and Ed that there has been some real progress in the industry. The 12 leading international companies that are members of the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative have reported some positive numbers: their methane emissions are down 62%, routine flaring is down 72%, and there's been a 24% reduction in total greenhouse gas emissions.There is still huge potential for cutting in total greenhouse gas emissions by curbing methane leakage and routine flaring worldwide. How can we make more progress? Bjorn explains the scale of the opportunity, the real-world constraints, and the growing role of new technology including satellites and AI in detecting leaks. Keep following the Energy Gang for more news and insight as COP30 wraps. Next week we'll talk about what happed, what was promised, what didn't happen, and what to expect on climate action in 2026.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
