Machine Learning Carbon Capture with Diego Saez-Gil

Companies can have a negative impact on the environment by outputting excess carbon. Many companies want to reduce their net carbon impact to zero, which can be done by investing in forests. Pachama is a marketplace for forest investments. Pachama uses satellites, imaging, machine learning, and other techniques to determine how much carbon is being absorbed by different forests. Diego Saez-Gil is a founder of Pachama, and joins the show to talk through how Pachama works and the long-term goals of the company.
