Description

Tickets? Booked. Microphone? Packed. Passport..?

This week we're off to Reykjavik to take part in Iceland Innovation Week's climate conference Ok, bye.

The event's name refers to the first Icelandic glacier lost to climate change, Ok-jökull and it was a chance for us to check in with some of the businesses and policymakers turning this isolated North Atlantic island into a world leader in carbon removal projects.

Thanks to this week's guests:
