In this episode we're joined by Andrew DeVaney of As One Ministries as he shares with us his work in Uganda, working to build sustainable models where communities invest in their own development rather than relying only on charity. They discuss the power of trust, meaningful relationships, and why leaders and missionaries must be learners, taking time to listen and understand their communities.

Katherine Neebe serves as senior vice president of national engagement and strategy, and chief sustainability and philanthropy officer for Duke Energy. She leads Duke Energy's stakeholder engagement efforts to develop solutions to meet customer needs for continued reliable and affordable energy—while simultaneously working to achieve the company's goal of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. In addition, Katherine maintains oversight of the Duke Energy Foundation, which provides philanthropic support to help meet the needs of communities where Duke Energy customers live and work. In this episode, we discuss: ●     Nuclear power's resurgence ●     Modernizing the power grid ●     The surprising reason the US power industry has been able to reduce emissions by 40% Key Takeaways: ●     Tipping Point Industries: Tipping points can be for the better or the worse. When it comes to creating a sustainable future, there are tipping point industries that can have an oversized impact on our collective emissions reductions. The energy sector, for example, is foundational—it powers our lives and businesses. By making it sustainable, we create a massive ripple effect that benefits every organization and individual relying on it. Similarly, transportation is another cornerstone sector. Innovation in tipping point industries can profoundly impact our collective path to sustainability. ●     Energy: The Force of Transformation: Physics teaches us that energy cannot be created or destroyed, it merely changes from one form to another. This principle allows us to power entire cities by harnessing, transporting, and converting energy. It got me thinking—what do you want to power with the energy within you? What do you want to build and sustain with your life force? Reflecting on how you harness your energy can lead to a legacy that outlasts you. ●     Levers for Change: Three levers for driving sustainability are: business, government, and philanthropy. These forces work together, to create combined change that's more than the sum of its parts. Like sustainability, most areas in life have multiple levers to create change, where a combined effort produces the best results. If there's something in your life, or your business, that you want to change, take some time to consider what the levers of change are for that thing. Chances are, your best results will come from approaching change from multiple directions.

With all the talk of hydrogen as a green alternative, I wanted to go back and listen to an episode released almost exactly a year ago. It seemed pretty unachievable and different, but now almost viable and scalable commercially. REVO ZERO is revolutionizing the transportation industry by bringing the most innovative, practical, and cost-effective technologies to support a zero-emission economy of the future. We talked to Ruben Creus, a serial entrepreneur with a passion and drive to create a zero-emission vehicle. He takes the best of the Electric Vehicle (EV) technology and the Plug-in Fuel Cells (PFC) and balances them to create a cost - efficient vehicle for local trips and quick refueling for longer trips. REVO ZERO is working on three different models of cars. In addition, they are creating an ecosystem of hydrogen generation, storage and fuel cells that is the perfect alternative for a clean, healthy and sustainable zero - emission future.

Pet3r Pan got into crypto around 2017, writing his Before Bitcoin series and finding his way into the Ethereum community. As a core member of the movement, Pet3r is one of the earliest DAO pioneers as a champion of Metacartel. This conversation revolves around the power of curating people and projects. Metacartel has instantiated itself as a loose-ish collective of certified 'good people.' Trust, positive sum personalities, and vibes are all forms of capital under this new paradigm. It's pretty cool. ------

Olympia Yarger filled a knowledge gap in my brain: the beauty of maggots. I never fully appreciated maggots, particularly of the black soldier fly, until I interviewed her. We also chatted about her husband's military career and the challenges of being a military family with a touching story about one of their family dogs. Olympia is helping reshape waste management as the founder and current CEO of Goterra, located in Australia. Her drive towards more efficient farming and reducing food waste has led to a new kind of insect farming using autonomous robotics. She is a determined, resilient, and larvae-loving-leader in the fight to develop a circular relationship between nature, technology, and food consumption. Something new this week on Remarkable People podcast!

Did you know beer was once consumed as a healthier alternative to water?   The fermented beverage has been around for 4000 years. Brewing sustainably will ensure we can drink to our health for centuries to come.     Breweries have a big footprint so there are opportunities everywhere to effect change. In this episode, we discuss brewing, regenerative agriculture, the flavor profile kernza, and forming partnerships with other sustainably minded food companies (Bcorps). Christian offers insights into the challenges breweries have when making the decision to go green. Water usage, waste reduction from spent grains, and energy consumption are pretty major when producing beer.       Ways you can get involved: Get in touch!  Christian and the team can be reached by email at hopworks@hopworksbeer.com Learn more about Hopworks sustainability program:  http://hopworksbeer.com/do-good/environment/ Find out about events https://facebook.com/hopworksbeer Learn about regenerative agriculture https://regenorganic.org/ Take a look at other B Corp certified companies who are using their business to better our world Attend International beach clean-up day is September 15th: https://oceanconservancy.org/trash-free-seas/international-coastal-cleanup/   Did you like this?
