Description

In this episode, we explore how a natural process called enhanced chemical weathering can remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and lower global temperatures. We learn how this process worked in the past to recover the Earth’s climate from episodes of rapid and intense warming. We also discuss the potential and challenges of using this process as a solution to the current climate crisis. Join us as we dive into the fascinating world of geology and climate science.
