Prior to Carbon180, Peter built a startup accelerator and venture fund focused on frontier innovation. He is a staunch believer that technology can help solve humanity’s greatest challenges.

Meet Jack: Jack runs the carbon management portfolio at Breakthrough Energy. He focuses on the policies and partnerships that will advance direct air capture, CCS, and geologic storage to meet net-zero by 2050 goals. Prior to joining Breakthrough, Jack was the Energy Policy Advisor at The Climate Reality Project and an Engineering Design Associate at Duke Energy.

Our AMA with Peter and Jack will start on Wednesday 25th January at 9am PST - 12pm EST - 5pm GMT and run asynchronously in the AMA slack channel for 24 hours.

In Peter and Jack’s episode with Cody, they cover:

  • Policy tailwinds for CDR

  • The categories and methodologies for CDR tech

  • Challenges faced along the commercial adoption process, and speed bumps that CDR will encounter as it scales (including fraud and false claims)

  • How and why buyers approach the space today

  • ....and more!
