Mission "Impossible": How a Contrarian Startup Won an XPRIZE

Without our oceans, the earth would have already warmed by 36C. As the most powerful buffer to climate change, it's no surprise that study after study shows that ocean-based climate solutions have the potential to be the highest-scale tools we have. So why have you never heard of them? In this session, Mike Kelland will take us on the journey from Planetary's founding to winning an XPRIZE for demonstrating the highest-scale form of carbon removal in the world. Along the way, we'll see why working on things that everyone "knows" are impossible can sometimes be the simplest path to success.
