In this episode we speak with Josh Elliot and Aaron White, founders of Climate Karen, a climate tech brand committed to making the planet less hot in an innovative way that allows the everyday person to get involved.
Josh and Aaron are two badasses who have had experiences and careers that took them all over the world. From drilling water wells in the Amazon to living in African villages where lions were known to prowl, these two have lived adventurous and fulfilling lives. We even talk about these wild experiences in the episode. Now they are teaming up to help put a dagger in the heart of climate change by forming a brand, which in their words, is “so ridiculous that it will get people to start talking about climate change” and do something about it.
Combining Aaron’s entrepreneurial background and Josh’s “get it done, execution” mindset, they have come up with an innovative way to get the everyday person involved in fighting this massive problem. Today, there is a technology which allows us to suck carbon dioxide out of the air, turn it into liquid, and inject it into the ground to form rock and capture the carbon dioxide forever. The challenge however, is that this method costs significant money, with only the largest of organizations such as Microsoft, Google, and the Government taking part. But, Josh and Aaron believe that if we can scale this technology we can ultimately reduce the cost and thus make a much larger impact. Enter Climate Karen which provides a subscription service, allowing the average person to subscribe for as low as $15 per month and get an investment return of removing over 500 pounds of carbon dioxide permanently on an annual basis, which is equivalent to approximately 1,000 miles of driving.
Josh and Aaron are beginning this venture with excitement, a big purpose, and a whole lot of energy. Listen in to hear two entrepreneurs discuss chasing their Dream Vocation and changing the world at the same time!
