Which natural climate solutions are scalable? And how can we accelerate? Wednesday September 1 we kick off a new series of Double Nature Talks live at Tolhuistuin with this most pressing question. How will we remove 1500 gigaton by doubling nature? Mimicking nature, we consider our systemic interventions as mycelium inoculating a growth medium. We…
ASN Bank with Climate Cleanup created a metric enabling the financial sector to account for construction stored carbon. This carbon removal metric enables financial institutions worldwide to measure the carbon stored in biobased buildings. In the Netherlands alone, this may add up to around 50 megaton carbon sequestered this decade. Take a look at the…
People in power have to change the world lots of people state often. Have you already seen Greta Thunberg’s speech, on July 2, 2021 at the Austrian World Summit? The role of government is often regarded as the most important one. The 49th Double Nature Talk of July 7 we gave the floor to civil servant…
When discussing climate change, the words tipping points are usually used to address physical phenomena. An international scientific team, led by Ilona Otto from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) shows that social tipping points also cause sudden and irreversible disruption of the status quo. Just like physical tipping points do. “Social tipping points are subdomains…
Bamboo is known as the fast growing wonder plant from Asia, but the plant does also flourish in Europe and even in the Netherlands. Joost Borneman and Brian Wennersten have devoted their lives to this multi-potent natural climate solution and were therefor asked to present their views and experiences June 23, 8 pm CEST at…
At the Double Nature Talk June 16, 8 pm CEST, Matthea De Jong – director Tolhuistuin – shared her vision on culture in the climate emergency and the role of hotspot Tolhuistuin in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, where Climate Cleanup is also residing. Tolhuistuin used to be the offices of Shell. More than 10 years ago…
More and more scientists all over the world are doing research on all kinds of possibilities of CO2 removal by olivine and other minerals. We’ve organized on May 12, 1.30 PM – 17.30 PM CEST the second global conference to create an overview of the research and to bring the network together. An informal bespoke scientific…
Thanks everyone for joining our festive online masterclass on May 26 on scalable climate solutions like seaweed, soil, regenerative (agro)forestry, circulair biobased materials, ONCRA and enhanced weathering. Take a look at the recording on our YouTubeChannel. Happy we had Paul Hawken (Drawdown / Regeneration), Damon Gameau (filmmaker 2040 Join the Regeneration), Matthea de Jong
Not one single group can regenerate the planet on its own; we need to break down silos and collaborate across all kinds of networks to really reverse global warming this decade. How to organize this? How to connect self-organized swarms of people all around the globe? Could this connection create the conditions for climate action…
Join the Double Nature Talk of Sam Levac-Levey on Wednesday April 21, 8 pm CEST. Throughout his career Sam worked on rockets, drones, turbines, energy storage, and even electric flying cars – but he never imagined that a board game would be next. Sam created Solutions the game, a game of hope & action for…
