In this week's episode, Desiree speaks with Caroline de Bossart and Robert Höglund on a variety of topics related to carbon dioxide removal, including research gaps, role of government and venture capital investors in supporting market development, and supplier and buyer dynamics.
Backgrounds on the guests:
Caroline de Bossart is currently the Director of Neglected Climate Opportunities at the Grantham Foundation where she invests catalytic pre-seed and seed capital in underfunded areas within climate, like geothermal energy, carbon dioxide removal, and critical metal mining.

She earned her Bachelor’s in Classics at University of Oxford.
Robert Höglund currently advises organizations on policy and carbon removal through Marginal Carbon AB.
