In this episode of This Must Be the Place, Shawna covers a lot of important ground with guest Kirk Johnson. He has worked passionately over the past two decades in reimagining a Canada powered by low-carbon, net-zero, sustainable energy. He has spent his career designing transformative sustainable energy programs and has taught as a professor at Humber College.

Highlights from this episode:

• Find out about what he refers to as “perverse incentives”.

• For a long time he was the only person of colour in the room-why he says we need to “stand up for people that are not in the room”.

• He explains why “reinvention of the wheel” is one of the biggest industry myths.
