In Montana atm, seeing lots of geothermal energy potential (eg all the geysers at Yellowstone) but how to harness it for electricity production? So thrilled to read about @fervoenergy and their new breakthrough and the future for commercial geothermal!!

Adding this to our data room.
1/ I left OpenAI 3 years ago to pursue a challenge equally as important as AGI: climate change. While we’re still short of ChatGPTree, @living_carbon has developed climate-smart trees, planted 200K+ trees & is creating a playbook for frontier tech in new markets:🧵👇
My fave answer to how to spend a big pile of climate money👇
Interesting visual to put into perspective .com bubble burst, 08 financial crisis to what we've been seeing in 2023. Would love your reactions for those who remember/lived through each downturn -- where does history rhyme? where are things just fundamentally different?
We're covering concrete with Alana Guzzetta from Vulcan Materials in @yinnerdo's Skilled Labor Series. 📈 Learn about success in the industry, 👩🔬 projects w/ @CarbonCure & @heirloom, and get valuable advice for those interested in joining the field. mcj.news/alanaguzzetta
Just landed at SFO for climate week; sunshine how I’ve missed you so! Come hang with me at the @lowercarbon and @googleventures event Wednesday night!
just saw an email sign off marked "Slay, serve, thrive". I'm kind of into it.
It felt inauthentic to learn publicly in all aspects of MCJ journey except our own fundraise so we had to fix that! Introducing new @mcjpod capital series - learning from best GPs & LPs, educating us & broader ecosystem, & developing robust relationships along the way. LFG!

Are there any ChatGPT models being used to create climate-tech specific knowledge bases?

Wildland fire suppression and mitigation is a tough line of work that, IMO, we take for granted. What is it like on the job? Give this episode a listen. Much much respect for @jimboslicesays and so many other hotshots out there. mcjcollective.com/my-climate-jou…
I asked for fire folks to interview, y'all delivered. Get ready for some interesting interviews ahead. Does anyone know front line workers at any EV manufacturers that I can talk to? Much gratitude!

Climate change is an existential threat, for sure. And I get why people beat the drum so loudly about how f*cked we are and how we need to move a lot more quickly than we’ve been moving. Both are true! But so much of climate communications focuses on the downside: sea level…
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce as figures in the new U.S. National Climate Assessment report, a thread

My fave answer to how to spend a big pile of climate money👇
@BrendanFWallace Become a private bank (not at whims of public shareholders) that offers low interest loans for home purchases that will energy retrofit (solar, hest pump, insulation) as part of the loan terms. It also ensures longer term value on the asset, in case the homeowners default.
America is an incredible place where anyone is allowed to show up and speak to power! As long as you don’t mind inconvenience 🙂 First City Council meeting won’t be our last 🙋🏻♀️
Unexpected moment at the state dinner when the president of South Korea sings “American Pie.”
Really enjoying visiting @GoogleStartups event for #SFClimateWeek
Can we please normalize breakfast networking? What’s the equivalent of cocktails every evening, but early (and I don’t mean just having cocktails in the morning!)? I’d much rather have dinner with family and help kids with homework but networking is important too.
To prevent another SVB situation, there needs to be a diverse portfolio of investing models, replete with traditional routes alongside new or less widely used models, according to Yin Lu, partner at early stage climate tech fund @mcjcollective. buff.ly/3AcX5f2
