Featuring Carbon Almanac Contributors Jenn Swanson, Leekei Tang and Imma Lopez.

From Langley in British Columbia, Canada, Jenn is a Minister, Coach, Writer and Community Connector, helping people help themselves. Leekei is an entrepreneur and an educator in the mission-driven fashion business industry. She is also a finance and business coach, helping chemistry engineering students transform their great ideas into small businesses.

Imma is from Cádiz in the South of Spain, living in Aberdeen, Scotland. Imma is a sommelier, a poet, a podcaster, a mother, a slow food advocate, and an animist activist.

Having contributed to many areas of the Carbon Almanac, Jenn, Leekei and Imma came together to discuss a number of different environmental issues.

In this episode, myth 3 is discussed.  People think that sustainable energy is more expensive.  Jenn and Leekei talk about to what extent this is a myth and where some upfront expenses can save a large amount in the long run. Myth 4 is that solar and wind energy only works when it is sunny or windy.  While energy can run out if there is very little sun or wind, energy is stored.  There can also be advantages when there is a lot of sun or wind!
