Listen "Episode 12: Novel Carbon Sequestration Methods, Genetically Modified Grapefruit, and the Science of Urban Wildfires"
Episode Synopsis
This week, we examine the concept of storing carbon in our building materials, developments that may allow grapefruit consumption for all, and how urban wildfires are caused, tracked, and prevented using modern technology. Two episodes related to genetically modified fruit is a lot...
