Very soon, everybody will claim that they always knew the energy transition was coming and that it would upend industries. But anybody who did a lot of briefings and presentations in the 2000s and 2010s will know that this was not really a widely held view in most sectors.

TIST Farmers have sequestered 6+ million tonnes of carbon! The last 20 years, we've been combating climate change by planting trees on farms and in communities. Today, those TIST Trees are removing greenhouse gas from the atmosphere, making our planet safer for future gens.

A seriously amazing idea with a huge impact on reducing our carbon footprint on earth. TIST does a fantastic job with the empowerment of locals within farming regions to become real leaders in their area.

No one company can address the climate crisis alone. It's important to share best practices, research, and learnings. The new Transform to Net Zero coalition can help us all turn carbon commitments into real progress toward a #NetZero future. transformtonetzero.org/

Everything we call civilization was invented in the last 500 generations—way too short a time for our bodies and brains to re-optimize. We're a bunch of forest primates in a totally unnatural environment, trying our little best. Someone needs to give our species a hug.
