In this episode of EnvironMental we talked about "girl science" (ie. what the good ol' boys call environmental studies), with Erin Wiedmer.

She's a freelance ecosystem restorer and permaculture designer - and boy does she love soil!

Erin told us about studying soil under a microscope and the difference between a chemically fertilized field and a field fertilized using organic materials - which by the way is staggering.

We definitely recommend following and connecting with Erin in LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erin-wiedmer-1bb6593/

In this episode of EnvironMental, we spoke with Taso Arima about IperionX his sustainable Titanium - and we had trouble picking our jaws up off the floor.

What we thought could be a greenwashing nightmare of a podcast turned out to be one of the most exciting episodes we have ever done. Taso explained how IperionX works - including the chemistry behind their revolutionary production system. We learned that titanium - and its alloys - is infinitely recyclable. It really is the metal of the future!
