Closed Loop Systems & Deep Sea Mining - Erika Ilves

What does it look like if we reuse every atom of metal that we
take out of the ground? Erika Ilves is a thinker and industrial
strategist who believes that a one-time deep-sea mining effort
coupled to a blockchain-based materials-rental paradigm are the
key to a harmonious ecological future for humans on Earth. Our
conversation details her current projects but also digs into
diverse scientific and environmental ideas like problems with our
contemporary cosmic narrative, optimism as a moral imperative,
and alternatives rivalrous heroism in drama.  Subscribe so
