Speaker:Welcome to Carbon Sessions.
Speaker:A podcast with carbon conversations for every day with everyone
Speaker:from everywhere in the world.
Speaker:In our conversations, we share ideas, perspectives, questions, and things we
Speaker:can actually do to make a difference.
Speaker:So don't be shy.
Speaker:Join our carbon sessions because it's not too late.
Speaker:Hi, I'm, hello.
Speaker:I'm.
Speaker:Hi, I'm Jen, and, and today we're talking about, I mean, since we're,
Speaker:we're wrapping the year up and Christmas bells are pretty much ringing everywhere.
Speaker:and we're getting ready for 2023.
Speaker:. No.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Well, actually this is last week.
Speaker:That's Friday of a full disclosure.
Speaker:This is last Friday of November, and this episode will be published either at the
Speaker:end of the year or beginning of next year.
Speaker:So yeah, . Yeah.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:But you know, you know, in my area they.
Speaker:Putting lights in really some parts.
Speaker:Oh, yeah.
Speaker:Here too.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:I, I, I've seen shops like putting really nice lights and just letting
Speaker:you know about, oh, you know, Christmas, Christmas is coming.
Speaker:. Um, the interesting song would sing when we were younger would be, uh,
Speaker:and I, and I dunno if I can sing here, but it's basically, Christmas
Speaker:is coming, mommy buy me a shoe, and.
Speaker:We, we sang that growing up anyway, you know, so that, that brings me to the,
Speaker:the conversation that we're having today.
Speaker:Um, and we're talking about the New Year's resolution, right?
Speaker:Basically something that we wanna do in 2023 as it pertains to climate change.
Speaker:It could be something that you wanna do more.
Speaker:It could be something you wanna do less.
Speaker:It could be something you wanna start doing.
Speaker:It could be something that you wanna stop doing as well.
Speaker:. Um, that's, that's the direction that our conversation is taken today.
Speaker:And we will be talking about our resolutions and feel free to drop a
Speaker:message, um, with us and tell us about what your resolutions are as well, um,
Speaker:using the website in, in the description.
Speaker:You'd be able to do that.
Speaker:Just hit record and tell us what your New Year's resolution would.
Speaker:And your promise to the environment.
Speaker:Anyway, let's get started.
Speaker:So who's going first?
Speaker:, I, I just have a question before, before we start at Hoang.
Speaker:Why would mommy buy one shoe like this is this burning question when
Speaker:daddy buy the other one or what
Speaker:So, so it's just, I don't even know.
Speaker:That's the funny thing.
Speaker:I dunno.
Speaker:It's just something I heard growing up.
Speaker:I just wondered.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:I was, I was de I was distracted there for a bit.
Speaker:I'm, I'm definitely gonna ask my mom and get back to you.
Speaker:Ok.
Speaker:, do you wanna go leaky.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:For next year, what I wanna do, and I've been wanting to do this for a
Speaker:while, is to take care of my banks.
Speaker:, like, you know, the banks that has my money, uh, whether it's, um, a deposit
Speaker:account, investment account, or like check accounts because, um, uh, uh, yeah,
Speaker:there's me, there's also my, business.
Speaker:And, um, it's not a lot of money, but it's money and it counts, you know, uh, the.
Speaker:That, , care of your, the banks that take care of your money is very
Speaker:important because, um, it's not like, you know, you are investing directly,
Speaker:um, in some , uh, companies, but what banks do is that they take your money.
Speaker:and they make investments.
Speaker:So once your money is, , in the bank, uh, what they do is that okay, you see
Speaker:that you have a certain amount, uh, in, in your bank account, but actually
Speaker:this money is invested well, even if it's not an investment account.
Speaker:So actually, , let's say that you have, um, I don't know, uh, a big
Speaker:amount of money, uh, in the bank.
Speaker:So it's like you are doing the investment.
Speaker:Yourself.
Speaker:It's no, not that you're doing the investment yourself.
Speaker:It's like you are giving the power to the bank to make investment on your
Speaker:behalf because it's your money after all.
Speaker:Okay, banks, , lend the money to companies, to, , and uh, to
Speaker:organizations and, um mm-hmm.
Speaker:and banks, um, what they wanna do is to play safe.
Speaker:So what they they wanna do is that they want to lend the money to companies that
Speaker:have a reputable, uh, business model.
Speaker:And that's not, uh, that business is not cost too much risk.
Speaker:So something that is quite traditional.
Speaker:And, um, actually, , fossil fuels company, they require a love investment because,
Speaker:um, when you have, uh, you dig oil somewhere, you dig a hole to get oil that
Speaker:requires, um, love investment and it's investment for a very, very long time.
Speaker:But those kind of investments are quite safe.
Speaker:For banks, um, because it's a, mm-hmm , it's a business model they are aware
Speaker:of and they know how it works, so they know that it's not too dangerous.
Speaker:And so a lot of banks actually, um, invest, , in those kind of companies, um,
Speaker:you know, companies that support other exploitation of, um, of fossil fuels.
Speaker:And so that's bother me.
Speaker:That actually has bothered me for a long, long time.
Speaker:I, because, uh, I used to work in investment.
Speaker:And, uh, and, uh, so I should, I should have changed banks for a long, long time.
Speaker:I used to work in investment banks.
Speaker:Uh, one of the reason that made me change, , is because, well, I realized
Speaker:that, they, um, not necessarily, uh, Investing your money in the right thing.
Speaker:So I decide to quit and change my career path and work elsewhere.
Speaker:Uh, but that's funny because I, I always tell my students, don't quit,
Speaker:if you want to change the system, stay in the system.
Speaker:But working in a bank, it's so massive.
Speaker:It's so big, like, you know, It's so difficult to change the way
Speaker:the banks work from the insider.
Speaker:I decided at that time to to look for another career path.
Speaker:And so, so I know what banks are doing I know that and I
Speaker:should have done it much earlier.
Speaker:And, uh, so I.
Speaker:Guilty, really guilty, but it's not like I have not done anything.
Speaker:, I've been researching banks that are better practices because the banks I'm
Speaker:with right now, um, they are not so good.
Speaker:Really, really not so good.
Speaker:So I've been researching better banks and, um, but the problem is I was
Speaker:looking for the perfect bank and the perfect bank doesn't exist.
Speaker:That is the thing.
Speaker:So I, yeah.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:So I come to a point that I think, okay, well, um, and actually, you know,
Speaker:working with the Carbon Almanac project made me realize that, okay, well if
Speaker:you're looking for the perfect solution, it is like you're not doing anything.
Speaker:So now mm-hmm.
Speaker:, um, I've been auditing banks and I was trying to find , better banks.
Speaker:, the perfect bank.
Speaker:Bank doesn't exist, so I'll just go and, um, and, and put my money in.
Speaker:In better banks because, uh, the banks I'm with right now are very, very bad.
Speaker:And I hate that actually, because it's so much like, you know, kind of work.
Speaker:I don't like, like administrative work, but I think it's, it's
Speaker:very important because, um, yeah, because, um, banks have your money
Speaker:and, uh, they will invest it anyway.
Speaker:And, um, so you, it's like giving, you are giving them the.
Speaker:To make investment decisions on your behalf.
Speaker:So if you don't take care of this, it's like you are a kind of accomplice.
Speaker:I think so, yeah.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:That's really great.
Speaker:That's amazing.
Speaker:I mean, I've, I've never thought about like checking out my banks,
Speaker:so, uh, I, I probably would, would still a bit into some of the
Speaker:things that you wanna do, as well.
Speaker:That's, It's as good as supporting when you keep your money there.
Speaker:One of the reason I didn't do it is also, um, out of convenience because changing
Speaker:banks is such a hassle and, uh, so again, you know, we're going back to convenience.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:We have something here called credit unions.
Speaker:I don't know if you have such a thing.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:But it's a little bit better than banks.
Speaker:as far as what they invest in.
Speaker:But you still have to be careful.
Speaker:You still have to investigate.
Speaker:Yes, yes.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:So we're, we, we're in a credit union, but, um, but yeah, there's still, there's
Speaker:still layers and layers and layers to dig into , but it is important.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:So this is something I it part of my plan for 2023.
Speaker:That's, that's, that's a really great one.
Speaker:That's great.
Speaker:Jen, do you wanna go next?
Speaker:Yeah, sure.
Speaker:My, um, a couple of things on the, the, um, the personal level is,
Speaker:um, we, I wanna grow more food.
Speaker:food is so expensive, , and I wanna do, I'm learning to garden better
Speaker:and I'm learning from different people and I was just given.
Speaker:Whole box full of seeds that had come from a family member who,
Speaker:um, who passed away and um, wow.
Speaker:Who had saved seeds from her garden.
Speaker:And so I have some of those and some of them are flowers.
Speaker:Mm-hmm.
Speaker:, but that's okay for our pollinator friends.
Speaker:Um, and.
Speaker:One of the things I wanna also do in which goes along with growing
Speaker:more food, is we have, uh, we have a little bit of front lawn left.
Speaker:We took out our back lawn years ago and turned it into, um, uh, wood chips and um,
Speaker:Pollinator gardens, so perennial gardens for bees and butterflies and, um, and we
Speaker:plant food in and around that as well.
Speaker:I've got, I still have kale growing out there, I think.
Speaker:But in the side garden and the front, the, um, the side garden
Speaker:I wanna work on a bit more.
Speaker:And the front, we have this grass that's terrible.
Speaker:It's mostly weeds.
Speaker:And right now the moles are having a party because they're little molehills.
Speaker:It looks ridiculous.
Speaker:It looks like this piece of green yuck, and then little, little piles
Speaker:of dirt and rocks and the dog goes out and we actually have to step
Speaker:around all these little mole hills.
Speaker:And nobody else has this problem that I can see around us, and I'm
Speaker:not sure why they picked our yard.
Speaker:But anyway, I need to figure out what to do about moles and uh,
Speaker:, they're little creatures, right?
Speaker:and they go underneath and pop up and when they pop up they make a hill.
Speaker:And so, um, so anyway, I need to figure that out because I think the grass is not,
Speaker:nobody wants it , the moles don't want it.
Speaker:We don't need it . So I'd like to put food in there and trees and bushes
Speaker:and things that would grow food.
Speaker:So that's what I'm hoping to work on in 2023.
Speaker:As far as, um, Doing as much as I can with what we've already got.
Speaker:Yeah, that sounds amazing.
Speaker:That is great because you're originating the, um, from the,
Speaker:the, the soil and also visually
Speaker:Mm-hmm.
Speaker:. Cause I can picture the, the, the hills . It's crazy.
Speaker:. Yeah.
Speaker:And, and, and that's, that's also assurance for me.
Speaker:If I show up in the area, they'll, they'll be food
Speaker:Absolutely.
Speaker:They'll be food
Speaker:It's really cool.
Speaker:I'm actually excited about, like, a lot of this cause and, and I'm, I'm so clear,
Speaker:really curious to, to know what other people are actually thinking as well.
Speaker:Um, like, you know, things that you wanna stop doing or
Speaker:stop doing, or wanna do more.
Speaker:And I think leaky, we have that, we have that recording, uh, button on,
Speaker:on the carbon com slash podcast.
Speaker:And so you can just go ahead and hit recording, tell us what you're doing
Speaker:and we'll play it in our next episode.
Speaker:You know, we'll feature you and possibly invite you to,
Speaker:to come talk about it as well.
Speaker:So, yes.
Speaker:Um, have all the fun.
Speaker:Absolutely.
Speaker:And tell us what you're not gonna do anymore too.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:, what you're gonna do, what you're not gonna do, what you're gonna do
Speaker:more, what you're gonna do less.
Speaker:And it's just really taking a step forward.
Speaker:So it, it doesn't matter how small it is, we wanna hear it.
Speaker:And, and we're, we're cheering you on here.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:. So I guess it's my turn.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Tell us.
Speaker:Um, I, I definitely feel like I want to engage more people
Speaker:in like climate conversations.
Speaker:I also.
Speaker:Uh, cause like it's not, I don't think it's spoken enough enough around here
Speaker:in Africa, you know, even in Nigeria.
Speaker:And that's for like a number of reasons.
Speaker:Um, but I wanna be able to engage people that, that, you know, that
Speaker:can, you know, just basically empower people with information you
Speaker:need to be able to like, make a.
Speaker:and people who also have capacity to like, carry on these conversations
Speaker:to, to, you know, to larger spheres, people with a level of influence.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Um, and I have some of them, like I have a number of them around, um,
Speaker:even like people that lead industries, people that you know, have really
Speaker:good seats at at organizations that could, uh, press a few buttons.
Speaker:you know, influence things on, on a larger scale.
Speaker:And that's definitely something I think I wanna do more next
Speaker:year and see how, how that works.
Speaker:Uh, if you, let me, there's one more , please.
Speaker:We would like to hear more and, and that's just like buying the carbon
Speaker:amac for people in in Africa, across Africa and, and just get me to them
Speaker:and empowering them with the knowledge, starting with Nigeria and perhaps.
Speaker:In Ghana and in some other parts of Africa and just putting it there,
Speaker:especially in organizations that have capacity to like teach like schools.
Speaker:And I know that a lot of like private schools into like teach their kids
Speaker:stuff like this, especially when, uh, they even have clubs like, uh,
Speaker:you know, all these food clubs.
Speaker:Um, you know, this club and that club and just wondering if this is something
Speaker:I'd also want to like, um, set up a club for, and, and I mean, just curious,
Speaker:but first off, putting it in your hands so that it's um, it forms the base
Speaker:for which the conversation can start.
Speaker:But one thing I'm very certain of is I definitely wanna have
Speaker:more and more conversations on, on climate change in 2020.
Speaker:And so that's, that's what, that's what I, I just had a wondering,
Speaker:are scouts all over the world like scouting, the scouting program?
Speaker:Because they, they often have, are they, they you have scouts too?
Speaker:Yeah, we do.
Speaker:We do.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Cuz, cuz they have to earn badges for things.
Speaker:I wonder if there's an environmental badge, if there's a way to have
Speaker:them learn from the carbon almanac.
Speaker:So then they would all have one.
Speaker:That's an amazing idea.
Speaker:It just came to me just now.
Speaker:Whoa, . And, and perhaps we can even get someone, perhaps a leader in that,
Speaker:in that sphere of influence to call.
Speaker:Maybe we can invite someone and hear what they have to say about it and
Speaker:then how that might be possible.
Speaker:Cause that's really, really interesting because you were talking
Speaker:about groups and I'm thinking these are groups that already exist.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:And they have to do things with the, with the youth and the children and Yeah.
Speaker:And right into young adults and, and they, they're, they're institutionalized
Speaker:to a very, very big level.
Speaker:So if, if they.
Speaker:. If they make a call, then it's likely gonna trickle down to, I mean, even
Speaker:the list, whoa, that's, that's a mine.
Speaker:We should explore . Yeah,
Speaker:Probably somebody's thought of it already, but it just came to me
Speaker:now and I thought, yeah, I mean, we should, we should ask questions.
Speaker:I don't know anyone directly, but we, I can just go ahead and.
Speaker:And ask around.
Speaker:Perhaps we can, we can start off from there.
Speaker:This is what I like about our conversations, so super insightful,
Speaker:And as to how you can do it is, um, there's a, actually, there's a lot
Speaker:of resources on the, on our group firm, , on how to replicate the,
Speaker:uh, carbon Almanac action in cities.
Speaker:Uh, there's a.
Speaker:, , about that.
Speaker:And there's also a lot of resources.
Speaker:Wow.
Speaker:Uh, so if you have time this weekend, as you said, that you will dig into
Speaker:the, spend more time on the Yeah.
Speaker:On this course, on the boards.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Um, I, it's worth having a look, and that might give you some inspiration as to how,
Speaker:, you can do it or what, uh, other people have done in the area and start and,
Speaker:uh, , and if you're listening to this and you happen to be a scout leader or Noah
Speaker:Scout troop, um, uh, we have the whole educators guide that's absolutely free.
Speaker:Mm-hmm.
Speaker:on the website as well.
Speaker:And it has lesson plans and they are gauged to every age, and they're amazing.
Speaker:So you don't have to do anything.
Speaker:It's all already done for you.
Speaker:You just have to get a copy of the Almanac and, uh, Download the free Educator Guide.
Speaker:You don't have to get a copy of all the element, like you can't just get download,
Speaker:the, uh, educator's guide without getting a copy of the carbon element.
Speaker:So it's totally free.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:And um, yeah, fantastic.
Speaker:And you don't have to do anything but.
Speaker:Also, the way this Educator's Guide has been designed is that if you
Speaker:are an educator and if you have an activity, you can also build your
Speaker:own and, um, add it into the guide.
Speaker:Wow.
Speaker:So many possibilities.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:That's amazing.
Speaker:And, and there's like, there's so many stuff.
Speaker:There's even photoable if you want that.
Speaker:Oh yeah.
Speaker:And it's like, you know, it's, it's just like a ton of stuff.
Speaker:, if you're in that sphere of influence, please go ahead
Speaker:and grab, grab the resources.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:And, and tell us that you did . , that's right.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:And tell us that you did.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:I think that, um, your decision or your resolution on having more conversation
Speaker:is really, really essential because, um, the more we talk about it, um, the more
Speaker:we'll find, uh, solutions collectively because it's, uh, has so many face.
Speaker:Climate change has so many facets.
Speaker:So, and, uh, so a lot of people, everybody needs to be involved
Speaker:and, um, everybody needs to be, to know the facts, the implication,
Speaker:the impact, and the possibilities.
Speaker:And so, yeah, talking about it is very, very important.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:And, and something just accord to me, maybe what's even cooler
Speaker:is find someone to do it with.
Speaker:So find like an accountability partner.
Speaker:Who's gonna ask you, Hey, for example, um, ask me who have you spoken with this week?
Speaker:Or who did you engage?
Speaker:And I can go ahead and also ask you, you know, how many seeds have you planted?
Speaker:or literal seeds, or figurative seeds, , you know, or, or
Speaker:who are you banking with now?
Speaker:Yes, . Well, we've made this all this statement very publicly, so yeah, our
Speaker:listeners are, are accountability partners now, . Yeah, that's right.
Speaker:And, and maybe we can, we can track back sometime in the future to say, Hey, this
Speaker:is what we've done and, and if you send us what you, what you wanna start doing
Speaker:or stop doing, you know, what you wanna do less or do more, you know, when you just
Speaker:hit the link in the, in the description.
Speaker:If you send us that, maybe send us an email or something.
Speaker:Probably would.
Speaker:You on at some point as well to let us know how far you've gone on that.
Speaker:And it really, really super exciting to, to follow up with you and,
Speaker:and more updates on that end.
Speaker:Ooh, so many ideas.
Speaker:. Yeah.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:It's, it's been a super, super, super insightful conversation.
Speaker:Looking, you look like, you wanna say something , you can't
Speaker:see her, but we can't . No.
Speaker:Well, um, no.
Speaker:You know, I, I have this habit of every day I, I try to be more
Speaker:intentional in my life and, um, okay.
Speaker:and, um, every day.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:I have a couple of things I'm not going to share with you all my secrets, but
Speaker:like, you know, one thing , but , you know, um, one thing that I, I focus
Speaker:on is my personal wellbeing and, uh, I exercise and you know, this kind of
Speaker:stuff, but one thing I do, I used, I mean I'm still doing it, is to, , do
Speaker:something, uh, accomplish something that.
Speaker:Me happy, it could be work or, or a conversation, something
Speaker:that's creates, um, uh, you know, it's a habit that have developed.
Speaker:And n now what I want to do for 2000, , 23 is to do more in terms
Speaker:of, um, living more than a bully.
Speaker:So, um, mm-hmm.
Speaker:, I.
Speaker:in the city.
Speaker:Uh, one of the most, , sustainably living city in the world, which is Paris.
Speaker:I don't have, um, a alone, you all this kind of things.
Speaker:So, um, but I think I sh I should and I could do more.
Speaker:And, uh, One thing I'm going to do is to be more intentional and, , do more of
Speaker:what I'm doing or like add new habits and, um, because I think what is important is
Speaker:not like, you know, the big resolution.
Speaker:Yeah, big resolutions are important, but it's also what you do every
Speaker:single day that is important.
Speaker:So that is, um, what I will be doing in 2023.
Speaker:That's, that's so, that's so great.
Speaker:That's amazing.
Speaker:And it reminds me of a book that I.
Speaker:and I, I was just reading that yesterday, and it says like, you know, break things
Speaker:down into smaller chunks so that you are happy when you get stuff done.
Speaker:So there's a difference between going from one to a hundred because if you
Speaker:do being out of a hundred things, you've done one outta a hundred.
Speaker:But if you break that down to 10, , and that's, that's like 10
Speaker:groups of, that's a 10 group of 10.
Speaker:Mm-hmm.
Speaker:And if you do one out of 10, that's 10 over a hundred.
Speaker:And if you get 10 done, that's a hundred over a hundred, it's
Speaker:still like 10% of the main thing.
Speaker:But then you get like short bursts of happiness that you got something
Speaker:done and that, that basically fuels you to do, to do more and keep going.
Speaker:I'm definitely copying Yuki, and I'm pasting that on me.
Speaker:. Is that, is that the mi is that the Mini Habits book?
Speaker:The mini habits?
Speaker:Uh, no, that'll be, is that the book?
Speaker:Uh, rework that.
Speaker:That's rework.
Speaker:Oh, okay.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Rework.
Speaker:And it's, it's just a chapter because there's another book.
Speaker:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker:In Rework.
Speaker:There's another book called Mini Habits that sounds similar, but Yeah.
Speaker:That's, oh, wow.
Speaker:M rework.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:Yeah, I think maybe one day, I don't know, maybe one day I will, you know, um, move
Speaker:somewhere else and, and be, uh, self, self-sufficient, uh, in terms of, uh, of
Speaker:food and, uh, be upgrade and all that.
Speaker:Mm-hmm.
Speaker:. But in the meantime, I'm still here.
Speaker:I still live in Paris, so I still need to do better.
Speaker:So that is my, yeah.
Speaker:My, um, My pledge for 20, 23 years to is to do a little bit better.
Speaker:Wow.
Speaker:Wow.
Speaker:I, I think we've had a beautiful conversation today and I'm so
