Episode 36: Dr. Delton Chen | The Global Carbon Reward

Planetary Regeneration Podcast

The Global Carbon Reward: Complementary Currency, Strategic Quantitative Easing, Thermodynamics and Evolving Economics to Account for Biosphere Health. We talk with Dr. Delton Chen for the second time to go a layer deeper into his work pioneering a plan for a global carbon reward currency denominated in tons of greenhouse gas mitigation and/or sequestration. Dr. Chen’s work was recently featured as a pillar of the strategy in Kim Stanley Robinson’s new book, "Ministry for the Future", receiving high praise from the award-winning and best-selling hard sci-fi author. This episode features an overview of these concepts and questions: • Global Carbon Reward through the lenses of economics, science, and politics. • What should and should not be considered part of a carbon reward (not extracting carbon for instance)? • Strategic pathways to adoption (new partnerships, international NGO, demonstration projects) • The relationship between these concepts, Regen Network and other notable projects' approach (Digital Earth, blockchains, decentralisation, satellite data, etc.) https://www.global4c.org/ https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50998056-the-ministry-for-the-future https://www.drawdown.org/fellows/delton-chen [e-mail]
