Episode 05: Diana Snowden Seysses on Carbon Capture and Reuse
Listen now
Description
Today we speak to winemaker Diana Snowden Seysses about carbon capture and re-use. Carbon is essential for life. There are pure forms of carbon such as diamonds and combined forms such as CO2, which makes up the majority of greenhouse gases —around 80%. Although they are not the biggest contributors to greenhouse gases, emissions produced as a by-product of wine fermentation are 5 times more concentrated than those of cars or planes. Instead of letting this gas get released into the air, we have the option to trap it and turn it into something useful. Instagram @dianasnowsey @snowdenvineyards
