“Emission-free technologies such as electric vehicles (EVs), solar panels, wind turbines, and nuclear reactors are critical to reducing energy-related emissions and fulfilling net zero goals by 2050.
With demand escalating for clean energy technologies, demand for their essential components is also expected to grow, offering avenues for investors to capitalize on the dynamic clean energy market.

“In this episode, we talk in-depth about how lessons from Andrew Leonard’s niche, partners at the “Big 3″ management consulting firms, inform Geometric’s deliberate hiring and training processes, why Andrew hired a Chief Operating Officer relatively early in the firm’s growth cycle (before he even hit $5M in revenue) to handle the growing people-management challenges of the firm, and how Andrew’s firm has been able to maintain a strong company culture despite operating in a fully virtual environment by still including ongoing in-person get-togethers with the whole team.”
“A Swedish company has developed a revolutionary new way to provide clean electricity for a group of islands aiming for completely sustainable energy. The company, Minesto, has developed the Dragon 12, which is similar to an underwater kite. The idea for the Dragon 12 was sparked by the way in which kites tend to move in a figure eight pattern and exceed the speed of the wind, as CleanTechnica reported. When placed in water, the Dragon 12 travels in a figure eight, which accelerates the flow of water over its wings and multiplies the output of its turbine, according to the news outlet. It’s capable of an output of 1.2 megawatts. That’s about a third of the output of the average offshore wind turbine, but the Dragon 12 is also smaller, cheaper, and easier to install, noted CleanTechnica. “
“With their roaring diesel engines, tugboats push, pull and guide much larger vessels into port and out to sea. They are small but mighty — and incredibly dirty, spewing huge amounts of toxic exhaust and planet-warming emissions every year. Now, however, the humble harbor craft is going electric. America’s first fully battery-powered tugboat recently docked at the Port of San Diego, where officials are working to decarbonize not just tugs but also diesel cranes and trucks. The electric tug was built over three years at an Alabama shipyard, then moved through the Panama Canal before arriving in Southern California earlier this spring.”
“On today’s show, ‘The Original Referral Coach’ Bill Cates offers actionable specifics on how to set the stage for referrals, how to ask and position for referrals, how to follow up on referrals, and more importantly, how to create the mindset that attracts referrals on a consistent basis. If you’re serious about growing your client base, grab a pen and paper and block off an hour or two — you’re going to want to listen to this episode more than once.”
