SUMMARY:Carbon Capture: Can Technology Help Slow Climate Change?
DESCRIPTION:Can we fight climate change by capturing carbon before it reaches the atmosphere—or even pulling it back out of the air? \nJoin Telluride Science for an engaging conversation that breaks down the science behind carbon capture and explores whether it can be a meaningful part of our climate solution toolkit. Experts will explain how carbon capture works\, where it’s being used today\, and how new materials and electrochemical processes are making these technologies more efficient and scalable. \nThe discussion will cover: \n\nWhat carbon capture is and how it works\nCapturing carbon from industrial sources vs. directly from the air\nPromises\, limitations\, and common misconceptions\nHow carbon capture fits alongside renewable energy and other climate solutions\n\nThis panel discussion with thought-leading scientists offers a look at the opportunities—and challenges—of using science to address one of the most urgent issues of our time. Panelists include: \n\nDavid Kwabim\, Chemical and Environmental Engineering at Yale University\nMim Rahimi\, College of Engineering at University of Texas\nDavid Sinton\, Lawson Climate Institute at University of Toronto\nYayuan Liu\, Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at John Hopkins University\n\nThe event is free and open to the public. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Giants of Time: The Myth\, Mystique\, and Climate Power of the Redwood Forests
DESCRIPTION:Towering\, ancient\, and awe-inspiring\, redwood forests are more than natural wonders—they are living models of climate resilience\, biodiversity\, and long-term stewardship. Join us for an engaging evening with Sam Hodder\, former President and CEO of Save the Redwoods League\, for a wide-ranging conversation on why redwoods matter now more than ever. \nDrawing on more than three decades of leadership in land conservation\, Sam will explore what makes redwoods so extraordinary—from their remarkable biology and longevity to their outsized role in addressing the climate crisis and wildfire resilience. \nSam Hodder brings rare perspective to this conversation. Over a 33-year career in nonprofit land conservation\, including nearly 12 years leading Save the Redwoods League where he helped permanently protect more than 25\,000 acres of redwood forest\, launched California’s most ambitious redwood restoration effort\, and advanced groundbreaking research on redwoods and climate change. \nThis  event\, brought to you by Telluride Science and Telluride Foundation is free and open to the public\, but RSVP is required HERE. \n
