Cleaning Up Industry

About this episode

This episode discusses how to clean up the industrial sector, a major source of climate pollution, featuring experts in industrial decarbonization.

The industrial sector makes all of our physical stuff – the clothes we wear, the cars we drive, the buildings we live in, and much more. It's also one of the biggest sources of U.S. climate pollution. In this episode of A Matter of Degrees , we bring on guest host Dr. Eric Masanet , world-leading industrial decarbonization expert, to break down how we can clean up this sector. We are also joined by Rebecca Dell , the Senior Director of the Industry Program at the ClimateWorks Foundation, Nick Santero , the Sustainability Science Team Lead at Rivian, and Yinka Bode-George , the Founder, President, and CEO of Sustain Our Future.
