We are the mycelium

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 invited five innovative people to share their ‘inoculations’, following the four main scalable carbon removal strategies: soil, rock, ocean and construction.
