AMA Experiment
One of the things I don’t love about Substack is it often seems one-directional - thoughts from me going into your email inbox or Substack app.
But I’ve always enjoyed a conversation more than a monologue and figured paternity leave was a great time to experiment.
Live conversations are a bit difficult with a baby, but with her often in sleep mode, I can pretty easily answer questions so figured the AMA (Ask Me Anything) model could be a good fit :).
Two options for submitting questions:
Responding to the email of this post
Comment on the post itself
I’ll put together some responses either written or video, still figuring out what’s easier to do while watching the baby…
I like to think I’m an open book but if there’s anything I’m not comfortable answering I’ll at least give you an explanation as to why.
And if I don’t get more than 5 questions then I’ll probably just respond directly to those questions because not worth taking up more of your time with another post/video.
This is a total experiment but if you’ve got a question, send it my way!
Thanks for being a part of this community and I hope this is the first of many experiments to get more dialogue going between us folks tinkering at the intersection of the environment, politics, economics, human behavior, finance and so much more.

This is too open ended... you have to give me a theme! What is the number one, specific lesson for the successful and rapid scaling of environmental markets that you would derive from early days as a first time dad?
Has becoming a parent changed the way you think about your work/nature/the future?
