In this week's episode, we question whether it's tech or policy that will actually make the biggest dent in the global climate crisis. We kick off with the super positive Biden news that has the world exhaling a massive sigh of relief and what this spells for a new era of climate consciousness. We question how things are set to change given the fresh political landscape, and how the US vs NZ is poised to take action.

We dive into this juicy issue with climate policy and climate finance adviser, Byron Fay (who happens to be calling in from his quarantine hotel in Sydney). We explore the current policy landscape around carbon removal, and the contrasts in how different countries are tackling this issue. We dig into the role that entrepreneurs and tech leaders are playing in the climate crisis, drawing on the example of Elon Musk making his mark in shifting attitudes and policy in regards to energy. We froth out on the opportunities that Byron lays out in the realms of lower carbon tech, and how we're only just starting to scrape the tip of the iceberg with these technologies.
