I recently learned that we have a tool that converts carbon to oxygen. Think about that. It seems like every conversation around energy is also at some level about carbon. Dr. Eric Hinterman helped build and manage a tool called Moxie, which is a device that pulls carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and converts it to oxygen. Eric recently joined Space X and before that he was at MIT and Blue Origin and other places where smart people congregate. Moxie is intended to be used in space travel, in space colonization, where there is an abundance of carbon and little, if any, oxygen. Today, the power required to convert carbon dioxide to oxygen on earth would be counterproductive, to say the least. But we're on the path, and I'm optimistic that tools like this will lead to human flourishing. Please enjoy this conversation with Dr. Eric Hinterman on the next cuts experience.
