Description

The space race was exciting. The climate race is urgent.  In this episode of The Capitalist Hippie Podcast, host Marco Pimentel talks with former NASA engineer, Grant Gunnison, about how he founded Zero Homes to reimagine how Americans power their homes.

With 20% of U.S. emissions coming from single-family houses, Zero Homes is using software, data, and design to make retrofits effortless, turning what used to take weeks into a one-hour digital experience. Marco and Grant unpack how better tech and smarter systems can accelerate climate action, lower costs for homeowners, and make sustainable living the new standard.
