Listen "Recycling Heat From Sewers and Vancouver's Green City Ambitions"
Episode Synopsis
Vancouver boasts the lowest carbon emissions per capita in North America and consistently ranks among the world’s most livable cities. That's no coincidence. This week, Josh speaks with Gregor Robertson, former Mayor of Vancouver, who championed many climate innovations during his three terms in office, including installing North America's largest waste sewer heat recovery system—delivering zero-carbon space and water heating to over 6,000 apartment units. Josh is also joined by Lynn Mueller, founder of Sharc Energy, who invented the technology, which is now spreading to cities across the U.S.Show Links:Guests: Gregor Robertson and Lynn MuellerCompany: SHARC EnergyOrganization: Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate and EnergyInitiative: Sewer Heat Recovery System Vancouver's False Creek NeighborhoodFor more Supercool climate solutions that cut carbon, improve modern life, and shape the new low carbon economy, subscribe to the podcast plus:* Youtube Channel* Weekly Newsletter* Instagram and LinkedIn
