Biodiversity = Σ [Biology x (Diversity + Inclusion)²] ft. Matthieu Maurin, CEO of Iceberg Data Lab | Preservation, Climate Change

Episode notes

Did you know that over the past 440 million years, there have been five mass extinction events on Earth? Now, according to scientists, the sixth extinction may already be underway. By the end of the century, it is estimated that half of an estimated 8 million living species could become extinct due to human-induced global warming. In other words: biodiversity is at risk. Join Kokou Agbo-Bloua as he embarks on a journey to understand the critical importance of preserving biodiversity in the face of pressing environmental challenges. While listing topics ranging from historical mass extinction events to present-day climate forecasts, Kokou uncovers the profound impact of human activity on ecosystems worldwide. From the carbon sink properties of biodiversity to the intersection of energy transition and mineral extraction, Kokou unravels the complexities shaping our planet's ecological balance. Insights from environmental experts like Olivia Lazard shed light on the challenges of decoupling economic growth from greenhouse gas emissions while navigating the intricate geopolitics of resource extraction.
