Craig Smith is a retired engineer who served as president of a construction corporation and more recently co-authored a book with William Fletcher: "Reaching Net Zero..” Ashrith reports that the larger the vehicle, the more difficult the challenge in making it move sustainably. But trains are fairly easy to decarbonize; they just change over to. green hydrogen, and this can be done within the next five years. https://tosavetheworld.ca/episode-400-tomorrows-transport Episode 401: Sustainable Buildings Sandra Leigh Lester advises architects about ways of making buildings more sustainable, healthful, and beneficial for the wider community. Claire Adamson is a retired architect in Montreal. They both have issues with the fashionable ways of renovating homes. Adamson dislikes the trend toward "open kitchens." Lester says some of her clients want granite countertops and other things they don't need; they should pay more attention to such things as valves to keep sewage from backing up into their basements. https://tosavetheworld.ca/episode-401-sustainable-buildings Episode 402: Russian Greenpeace Vasily Yablokov is a staff member of Greenpeace in St. Petersburg. He notes that there has been a significant change in Russian public opinion about climate change during the past two years -- but that nevertheless the majority of the population remains rather oblivious to the issue, though Russia is the country that already is suffering most from it. There are only 30 monitoring stations along the long Siberian coast. Greenpeace may be doing research with Sergey and Nikita Zimov, the Siberians who maintain Pleistocene Park and who are concerned about the emissions of methane from thawing permafrost. https://tosavetheworld.ca/episode-402-russian-greenpeace/ Project Save the World is sponsored by Peace Magazine.
