Check out the Aug. 4 episode of Halifax-based podcast Pretty Heady Stuff (@scottrston) with EAC Senior Energy Coordinator Brenna Walsh to learn more about the carbon tax & how it is helping to fight the climate emergency in Canada: podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcas…

Text underneath says "Brenna Walsh factors in the social cost of carbon when fighting fossil fuel dependency" with the podcast name, "Pretty Heady Stuff" on the line beneath this.
