Happy planet Wednesday!
We are kicking off a new season, and today I'm just delighted to welcome Jason Dodier, a recognized global authority on the circular economy, biochar and decarbonization. His company, Grain Ecosystem, is an AI and data-driven solution that revolutionizes waste to energy products. They position biochar, which we'll be hearing a lot about today, as the cornerstone of carbon sequestration, community development and project financing. As though that weren't enough, Jason also co-founded Fountainhead Rhode Island, a community fostering environmental startups and leadership in Rhode Island and beyond.
I am also giving a shout out to fellow Maine angel Bobbie Lamont for supporting the podcast. She's a tremendous force in the main startup ecosystem, and I'm honored that she's listening to and supporting the podcast. Bobbie will receive a beautiful Happy Planet baseball cap in return for her support.
