Amy Scott
An "antacid" to fight climate change adds Scott as the field reporter for an ocean-based Carbon Removal segment from Duck, North Carolina. Her reporting follows Vesta’s olivine field demonstration and turns Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement into a concrete chemistry, monitoring, scale, and marine-life-risk story rather than an abstract geoengineering proposal.
How botnets infiltrate the internet of things adds Scott through another closing How We Survive promo. The main Marketplace Tech episode covers IoT Botnet Risk, Pirated Streaming Box Malware, and DDoS Attack Amplification, while the promo points to Scott’s climate-solutions reporting.
States are getting crypto-curious adds Scott through another closing How We Survive promo. The main Marketplace Tech episode covers State Crypto Reserves and Public Crypto Investment Risk, while the promo points to Scott’s climate-solutions reporting on geoengineering and space-economy ideas.
Mushrooms could help curb plastic waste adds Scott through another closing How We Survive promo. The main Marketplace Tech segment covers Mycelium Insulation and Biodegradable Foam Packaging, while the promo points toward Scott’s broader climate-solutions reporting.
California buildings must limit "embodied carbon." Here’s what that means adds Scott through the closing How We Survive promo attached to the Marketplace Tech segment on Embodied Carbon Building Code. The promo frames her climate-solutions show as exploring responses beyond lower-carbon building materials, including larger-scale and more speculative interventions.
Amy Scott is the Marketplace reporter in The high cost of vacuuming carbon from the sky. Her visit to Heirloom Carbon Technologies gives the episode its concrete Direct Air Capture explainer: the listener sees limestone, kiln heating, CO2 separation, and repeated atmospheric absorption rather than only hearing a climate-policy abstraction.
Scott’s reporting also links the technical demonstration to public funding and legitimacy questions. The segment follows from Heirloom’s California facility to its planned Louisiana project, then to Carbon180’s explanation of why some carbon-removal hubs survived federal funding cuts.
By 2030, EVs could cost the same as their gas guzzling siblings adds Scott through the closing How We Survive promo. The episode frames her climate-solutions podcast as covering messy climate responses, including geoengineering and space-based sunshades, after the main segment on EV affordability.
A whiplash year for electric vehicles adds the same promo context after a Marketplace Tech segment on U.S. EV sales whiplash. The main episode contribution is EV Tax Credit Cliff and Used EV Affordability, while the promo again points toward Scott’s broader climate-solutions reporting.
Anti-AI data center sentiment is becoming a political issue adds another closing-promo mention of Scott and How We Survive. The main episode is about Data Center Backlash and Data Center Community Consent, while the promo points listeners toward climate-solutions reporting on geoengineering ideas.
Bytes: Week in Review - Apple’s new CEO, Meta’s latest AI play, and Roblox’s safety updates adds Scott through another How We Survive promo. The main Bytes discussion covers Apple, Meta, and Roblox, while the promo keeps Scott connected to Marketplace’s climate-solutions thread.
Raising the "speed limit" on AI’s "information highway" adds Scott through another How We Survive promo. The main episode covers AWS networking hardware and AI Cluster Networking, while the promo points to her climate-solutions reporting on geoengineering, sunshades, and space-economy scenarios.
A recycling startup joins the AI boom adds Scott through another How We Survive promo. The main episode covers Redwood Materials and Second-Life EV Battery Storage, while the promo again points listeners toward her broader climate-solutions reporting.
