S2E8: Salvation in the Air | The Economist | August 1, 2019 | "At the dawn of the 20th century, chemists dreamed of extracting nitrogen from the air and turning it into a limitless supply of fertiliser.

What happened next changed the course of 20th-century history, and provides inspiration to innovators pursuing a different dream today: sucking carbon dioxide out of the air to avert climate change. Might they not be quite so crazy after all?" | DACScaling upInnovation | Podcast | |
