Each episode, we sit down with the leaders, innovators, and changemakers from our international network, corporate sustainability officers, policymakers, clean energy pioneers, and frontline advocates, to explore what real climate progress looks like across industries, governments, and communities. Whether you're a sustainability professional navigating net zero commitments, a policymaker shaping climate legislation, or simply someone who wants to understand what's actually being done about climate change, this is your inside track on the conversations that matter. Accessible, honest, and grounded in action - because the climate crisis is too urgent for jargon and too complex for simple answers. Subscribe now and join a global community working toward a world of net zero, nature recovery, and fair energy for all. Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, we sit down with Grant Canary , CEO of Mast Reforestation , to explore how climate tech, biomass burial, and large‑scale reforestation can turn wildfire destruction into long‑term carbon removal. Grant shares why fixing the atmosphere is “the problem all other problems report to,” and how Mast rebuilds forests faster by burying fire‑killed trees to lock carbon away for thousands of years. We also discuss shrinking natural regeneration rates, the overwhelmed seed supply chain, and what it takes to restore burned landscapes at scale. If you care about climate solutions, carbon removal, forest restoration, or how innovation can reshape our response to megafires, this episode offers a clear look at the technologies and strategies shaping our planet’s future. Topics Covered: • Why natural forest recovery is dropping from 90% to as low as 40%–70% after wildfires • How biomass burial locks carbon away for thousands of years • What it takes to rebuild seed and seedling supply chains • The role of carbon markets in financing large‑scale reforestation • How Mast went from construction to carbon‑credit issuance in just nine months Listen in for a hopeful, actionable look at climate innovation and what it will take to restore our forests for the next generation.
