"Our food choices are one of the major areas where we can address the environment... what we eat can and does have a massive impact on greenhouse gas emissions."
-Dan Goldman, Co-Founder Clean Energy Ventures
On this week’s episode of the Eat Green Make Green Podcast I sit down with the one and only Dan Goldman. Dan is a Boston-based and plant-based marathoner, triathlete, and clean energy entrepreneur. He is currently the Co-Founder and Managing Director of Clean Energy Ventures, a $100Million early stage clean energy venture group. We talk about how Dan got into the energy space, his many world travels, what “clean energy” is, the new innovations going on in the clean energy space, the potential integration of electric cars with your home, the bottlenecks to widespread adoption of clean energy technologies, the impact the Trump administration has made, the power our food choices have on combatting the climate crisis, the other steps we as individuals can take to reduce our carbon footprint, how he went from just starting running to becoming an ironman (triathlon - 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, marathon 26.2 mile run) in just six years, how he qualified for the 70.3 Ironman World Championships, what he recommends for people starting out in triathlons, what he looks for in an entrepreneur when investing, and much more. So much valuable information in this one on how we can all do our part for the planet.
