Description

Did you know that Air Company is using thin air to make sustainable aviation fuel, vodka, perfume, sanitiser and more? In this episode, we talk to Gregory Constantine, Co-Founder and CEO of  Air Company, who believes that the path to a sustainable future lies – quite literally – in the air. He shares how the company uses the planet’s most abundant pollutant and turns it into a never-ending resource.We’ll learn how Air Company’s patented carbon utilisation technology aims to free us from over a century-long dependency on fossil fuels by mimicking photosynthesis to utilise CO2 to produce sustainable alcohols and fuel. Their goal is to apply their technology across all possible industries: from the fragrances we wear everyday, to the jet fuel that moves us around the world. Feel free to reach out via email to podcast@simpliflying.com.
