Erik G. Turner has a background in chemical and process engineering and started his career in the Pharma industry.

Currently working for Neustark, an ETH spin off which works in the carbon removal space, transforming old concrete and CO2 into recycled concrete, he is contributing to the transformation of one of the largest waste streams in the world.

Erik got interested in sustainability in 2018, joining the NGO YES Europe, a youth led initiative focusing on a sustainable energy transition.

His thoughts center around identifying leverage points we have as a society to make change happen, around complexity and ambiguity and about "living the questions", which is very much what this episode is about.

We explore the topics of "tools" (which will we be choosing to address different crisis),

the "simple solutions trap" presented by politics and industry and why Erik's honest answer to: which solutions he is seeing at the moment -

is quite shockingly "none!"

This is an episode of exploration and questioning and we do hope you enjoy listening🌱
