"We are moving from an era of 'Harm Reduction' to an era of 'Systemic Repair.' Our industrial waste is becoming the building blocks of a more resilient biosphere."
"Energy efficiency is the 'first fuel' of the industrial transition. We cannot capture our way out of a climate crisis using inefficient power; the process itself must be as clean as the goal."
