S2:E30 - (Full Episode) DECARBONIZING OUR ELECTRICITY GRID

from Animalia · host Animalia

One of the most important things we can do in order to address climate change is decarbonize our electricity grid. As much as 25-33% of our emissions come from electricity and that is only going to increase as the world becomes more and more electric - from transportation to data centers to currency. While there are plenty of zero-carbon sources to cover our power needs - wind, solar, hydro, nuclear - the transition is difficult and needs more policy to push it forward. So today on Animalia we are sitting down with Dylan Leazes to discuss. Dylan works in Congress and spends a large chunk of his time on Energy Policy. He’s just the fella to talk with about how best we can accelerate this work. ----------------------------- If you have not yet done so, please join our weekly newsletter.

Dispatches: Animalia Tamer Asfahani Checkpoint and EUGY have come together because we share the same belief: that children learn to care for the natural world by experiencing it, not by being told about it. EUGY make beautiful, biodegradable animal models that a child can build with their own hands. We make stories that let a child experience the world through the animal's senses. Together, the story and the model become something neither could be alone — a story you can hold.Every EUGY animal inhabits a world they experience individually through their own senses. Our stories are written from the perspective of that world. There are no villains or heroes, no happy endings or sad ones. They are dispatches from the natural world. Each story is written from the animal's own senses. They are written to help us understand that what we see isn't necessarily what other species see. They help us frame a changing world through the eyes of those affected.Our stories let a child experience the natural world through another Animalia Podcast Anna Miller Original narrative storytelling about animals and wildlife on our shared planet.
