    21 Questions with Joshua T Berglan featuring Araminta Edmondson-Bennett

    The Future of Green Tech: A Conversation with a Realist

    In a world saturated with hype and unrealistic promises, it's refreshing to encounter someone who speaks with honesty and practicality. Araminta Edmondson-Bennett, co-founder and director of R-2 ENERGY, is just that. In this episode of UnMasking Humanity, Araminta joins Joshua T Berglan for a candid and insightful conversation about the future of green tech, the challenges of building a sustainable energy future, and the importance of human connection in driving positive change.

    Beyond the Hype: A Realistic Look at Green Tech

    Araminta's approach to green tech is grounded in reality. She acknowledges the limitations of current renewable energy solutions and the need for a more holistic approach. She emphasizes the importance of collaboration between different renewable energy technologies and the need for a realistic energy mix to achieve net zero emissions.

    "We're not there yet," she says, "We aren't ready yet. We need the investments. And yes, we're moving forward. But we aren't ready yet."

    This honesty is refreshing, especially in a field often dominated by overblown claims and unrealistic timelines. Araminta's willingness to acknowledge the challenges and complexities of the transition to a sustainable energy future is a breath of fresh air.

    Harnessing the Power of the Road: R-2 ENERGY's Vision

    Araminta's company, R-2 ENERGY, is pioneering the world's first road-based energy harvesting solutions. This innovative technology has the potential to revolutionize how we power our cities and communities.

    "It's a no-brainer," she says, "We're capturing energy that's otherwise going to waste."

    R-2 ENERGY's technology has the potential to power smart cities, reduce energy costs for businesses and homeowners, and even improve safety on our roads. Araminta's vision extends beyond simply generating electricity; she sees the potential for her technology to create a more connected and sustainable future.

    A Passion for People: Driving Change Through Collaboration

    Araminta's passion for sustainability is deeply intertwined with her passion for people. She believes that the transition to a sustainable energy future must be inclusive and equitable, benefiting everyone, not just large corporations.

    "Our whole goal is social impact," she says, "We're actually trying to make an impact to the individual people."

    This commitment to social impact is evident in R-2 ENERGY's work with schools and communities around the world. Araminta believes that engaging young people in the conversation about sustainability is crucial to building a better future.

    The Road Ahead: A Message of Hope and Action

    Araminta's message is one of hope and action. She believes that the future of green tech is bright, but it will require a collective effort.

    "Hang in there, it's coming," she says.

    Araminta's journey with R-2 ENERGY is a testament to the power of perseverance, collaboration, and a commitment to making a difference. Her story is an inspiration to anyone who believes in the power of innovation to create a more sustainable and equitable future.
