In this episode, Somil chats with Adam Fraser, CEO at Terraset, the “anti-GHG” 501c3. Philanthropy in climate is a hot topic – leading up to this episode we were getting questions left and right about the future of this space. And it’s because there’s seemingly so much money that could be in the space but isn’t yet.
That is the problem Adam and Terraset are trying to solve. It couldn’t have been a more timely show.
Enjoy the episode! 🌱🌎
