Carbon Emissions

“So right now the projection is we will have about fifty billion tons in twenty-fifty of global carbon equivalent emissions. Out of that fifty billion tons, 10 to fourteen billion tons could actually come from India. So at that time we could be a quarter 25% of…”

“When the government's asking you to measure something, I got news for you. That thing's going to be taxed. That thing is going to be taxed at some point in time, which is a whole different revenue source for the energy transition over time.”

“When you sort of did the whole accounting, sort of the life cycle accounting, there was a good argument to be made then and now that a house made of like more resilient, energy efficient materials on a life cycle actually would produce less carbon than one tha…”

“If you replace concrete with anything, that number goes up. If you try to replace it with plastic, if you try to replace it with steel, think about where you use concrete.”

“The first is you need to burn a lot of fuel because you need to use a lot of energy to make cement, and that's about 40% of the emissions in cement production.”

“So, so with that as a foundation and the fact that new technology isn't being adopted by 2035, if we don't do anything about aviation, it will be the biggest producer of carbon emissions and transportation.”

“Going electric will reduce emissions by six gigatons a year.”

“I think as compute gets more efficient, it definitely is a greener solution, right? If the applicability is around, let's say, commute, shopping, meetings, interactions, it is, I don't know if it's the answer, but it's definitely far better in terms of reducin…”

“Even the solar and wind industry in the United States today hasn't saved a gigaton of carbon. Right? For all of the, like, you know, this is amazing, it's fully mature, it has not saved a gigaton of carbon.”

“Those technologies are not just about doing good for the planet. They're just better business sense. And what I mean by that is they make stuff that's cheaper and better than the traditional way of making stuff or doing stuff. And if it's cheaper, if it's a be…”

“By 20 50, we will remove from the environment all of the carbon we have emitted directly or by electrical consumptions since our company's founding in 1975.”

“What people don't know is 40% of all carbon emissions in the United States come from the home.”

“So, transportation had decreased overall by, I think, was 15% from 2019 to 20 20, and we've seen it come back by 10%.”

“And, you know, you'll lose some of that electricity in the round trip conversions to store it and bring it out. So you're actually, like, more carbon-intensive if you're storing carbon-intensive electricity.”

“Cement, which is responsible for, I think, 20% of all the carbon emissions is a really pernicious industry”

“In the U.S., carbon emissions and resource utilization are actually falling.”

“The food supply chain in the world right now is responsible for like up to half of all carbon emissions for the current level of food output and the current kinds of food we consume.”
