Tell us what you think of the show!
This Week in Cleantech is a weekly podcast covering the most impactful stories in cleantech and climate in 15 minutes or less.
This week’s episode features Aaron Clark from Bloomberg, who wrote about efforts to reduce "forever chemicals" in semiconductor production.
This week's "Cleantecher of the Week" is Gregor Hintler.
