    Makes wonky stuff easy to understand
    Enjoyed the episode on home sustainability with GoodLeap. Appreciate Molly’s ability to summarize wonky topics and make them easy to understand!
  • ..................l.l.l....
    Amazing insights and speakers moderated artfully
    I first saw Molly Wood as a panel moderator at a sustainable finance conference in NYC. She showed curiosity, insights and narration like a top notch MC. This is my latest foray into the Molly Wood ecosystem and I’m loving it!
  • KR@QC
    Beneficial for all!
    Molly Wood has done an excellent job bringing information to us that informs, enlightens and entertains :-) Hopefully, more people will get involved in making our world, a better and safer place to live for us and our posterity! Live green, buy green and encourage green without being a jerk and driving other people crazy :-)

    Antidote to dooooooom
    There’s probably no one big solution (short of consumer-ready fusion?) but lots and lots of little ones. This is a great place to learn about some of them. I’m a long time fan of Molly Wood, and I love that she’s bringing her no-nonsense investigatory style to the do-something side of the issue. (Weirdly enough, I learned about this podcast from an interview on another podcast that I was listening tto while working out - in the pool.)

    A wonderful listen
    I’ve been a fan of Molly Wood for years but dragged my feet on adding another climate change podcast to my listening but after catching one episode I’m all in. Molly is a great moderator. She has fascinating guests with great ideas. It’s easy to listen and I’m binging all the episodes to catch up. I’m inspired and learning a lot.
  • A Scotts Valley fan
    Informative podcast
    I am a long time fan of Molly Wood from her CNET days and listened to her on Make me smart. I learn from every podcast.

    Glad to have Molly back!
    Enjoyed Molly on Make Me Smart for years, now glad she’s back podcasting, and on such an important topic! It’s so good to have a strong voice focusing not on the doom and gloom of climate change, but on the solutions that can help solve it (something I’ve devoted my professional life to, as well). Just a few episodes in and already learning a lot. So many solutions not only address the climate challenge, but just make our lives better, period. Who wouldn’t want that! I see a binge coming up over the holidays.

    Happy in the pool
    I binge-listened to the first 22 episodes and now I can’t get enough. If you, like me, lost all hope thinking we are doomed and there’s nothing we can do to change course, give this podcast a chance. Now my mantra is: the sum of individual actions can and will change the course. So get in the pool.
  • Dave Stachowiak
    Great direction
    Heard Molly on the 1000th episode of her former show, Make Me Smart, and this podcast was mentioned. Now six episodes in, loving the focus on the positive steps we can all take…and especially how we can make investing and capitalism work for us in the climate crisis. I’ll be listening going forward — keep going, Molly!

    Solutions for Climate
    Finally a resource for climate solutions that leverages capitalism, our buying power and behavior. Very empowering.
  • meleeska
    Engaging, accessible and critically important content
    I was thrilled to find this podcast which details various climate solutions! The arc of each episode is elegantly told by weaving together the tech solution with a solid problem statement and a personal journey. Excellent work! If only there were more stars to tap out how highly I could rate this engaging, accessible and critically important content!

    Love Solutions
    Enjoyed Molly Wood’s Marketplace podcast on looking for climate change solutions and exciting about continuing the search.
  • Sari_mak
    Love love love Molly
    This year was just what the world needs to offset our inside about climate change. I love the spotlight on how much is being done to help us through this really difficult crisis.
  • Steve in Tunersville NJ
    Molly is the Best!
    Her energy, enthusiasm and commitment to finding answers makes this show a must listen.
  • Trumpetvector
    Positive, cherry news on deploying climate solutions!
    I’m so happy that Molly Wood created this show! This puts power in anybody’s hands to get in a lane and build or help build a climate business. Yes, we have to understand how bad the problem is to match solutions, but then c’mon let’s get to work!
  • Ginger_510
    Amazing Insight and Hope!
    For years Mollywood was a part of my life as I enjoyed her amazing insight and delightful laugh as a part of the podcast, Make Me Smart. After becoming accustomed to her “banana pants”reaction to the craziness of our world, five days a week, her departure was truly felt. But knowing she was going out into the world to make it better was (is) hopeful. I’m already two episodes in and can’t wait to listen to them all!
  • Jonbsan
    Essential listening
    So good to have you back with a regular podcast Molly! We’ve missed you! Your podcast is just what is needed - take the climate crisis seriously, give us exciting stories of people making positive change and also reaping reward, and we can get into the pool. Keep up the great work!
  • Mooj58
    Fascinating stuff!
    For Everyone interested in learning. Share it with your friends, family, coworkers, neighbors, etc. This is fascinating stuff! Molly Wood has wonderful curiosity, perseverance and reporting skills. I learn from every episode.

    This Pod Gives Me Hope!!
    Not your typical climate change pod, this one focuses on SOLUTIONS. Molly breaks down the problems and shares new products and services available to help solve them. I’m only 17 episodes in and I’ve already purchased an EV, invested in community solar, made plans to install solar myself, installed a compost unit, am eating less meat, and have given recommendations to a major industrial complex regarding switching to hydration vending machines to minimize plastic water bottles (we’ll see what they say). This app is changing my life for the better. Thank you, Molly Wood!

    Love this show!
    Molly Wood brings us along as she explores potential climate solutions. From early entrepreneurs to activists educating us on changes we can make on our own, Molly proves that the situation isn’t hopeless. There’s a new economy emerging.

    Makes you Think!
    Molly does an amazing job making connections between everyday things and the climate. It’s incredibly important to understand how these systems make a difference and how you can make choices in your own life to help reduce emissions and adapt to a changing climate!
  • Em MKE
    The motivating climate podcast I need!
    This podcast has helped me feel connected to hope and stay motivated in my own climate action. It’s a great journey mate in that way and it’s so educational and well produced. I’m learning a lot from every episode and feeling nourished to not give up.
  • Christophurious
    Molly Wood doesn’t miss
    Do yourself a favor and subscribe to the show. Start with episode one and work your way up … interesting and entertaining. Look for the problem solvers and there you’ll find hope. Molly Wood might not directly be a problem solver … but she knows who they are, and she knows how to find them.
  • Callap
    Think
    I heard about Molly’s podcast from Allison Gill. On her recommendation I checked Molly out. NOT A WASTE OF TIME! Check it out for deeper knowledge of climate effects and what to think and do about it. Thank you, Molly. You’re right on.
  • s-ateecan
    Enlightenment and action
    I love this podcast. It makes me informed and gives me actions I can take in my life which is hella empowering.
  • Abby in the air
    Awesome!
    This is one of my favorite podcasts! It has a fascinating range of guests and topics, and it brings awareness to so many new and emerging climate tech tools and resources.
  • digby18
    Awesome
    Hydrogen planes episode exceptional. Smart dude
  • Surdana
    Absolutely excellent
    I've honestly never been that interested in climate change or it's ancillary topics, BUT I am a long time listener of marketplace & Make Me Smart, so when I saw Molly Wood was putting out a new podcast, I had to check it out. This show is a refreshing dip into optimism related to climate change, it is just the right length per episode & the guests are super interesting. I've found this to be a great podcast to recommend to some of my nature loving friends.

    Climate is Everything
    As an environmental lawyer, Molly Wood has been a great addition to catching up on climate issues with an economic twist. She’s the best!!!
  • Spencer Kuhn
    Serious topics with an ill informed host who has never managed real money
    Yup
  • LisaD9876!
    Very informative and enjoyable
    I have long been a huge fan of Molly Wood and this podcast reminds me why. Important and crucial topic and fabulous reporting. Nice work, Molly.
  • darthlink90
    Great show from a great person
    Always glad to listen to Molly’s take on these topics, and the excellent guests she finds.
  • Cassie8Rice
    Such great work!!
    Molly helps us understand the complexities of climate change and she wants to use capitalism to help us change the destructive path we are on. Thank you Pete Dominick for introducing me to this awesome podcast.
  • ClimbingDan
    The only way forward
    I hated for Marketplace to lose Molly Wood, but she knew what she was doing and is championing the greater cause. I feel that, aside from divine intervention, only disruptive innovation (and Wood argues incremental innovations, too—no solution is too small) is going to save us from the mess the world is in now. So as many of us turn our backs on the governments and corporations driven by short-term gains who turned their backs on us, we look to the upstarts and hackers to begin digging us out. But level-headed ideas prevail, too. The first episode touts The Job Board for those who want to pivot into a new career in climate, or at least add a little 'climate solution' to their continuing education.
  • CashMoneyPower
    Great new approach to a climate pod
    Molly knocks it out of the pool again with an intriguing new format that is bite sized, approachable, and human-centric. Bravo!
  • La Manifesta
    Molly Wood at her best
    I’ve been missing Molly Wood in the podcast world since she left Marketplace/Marketplace Tech/Make Me Smart. (I’ve listened to her other podcasts, It’s a Thing and This Week in Startups, but neither topic grabs me.) Everybody in the Pool is new, but it’s so hopeful and practical that I can’t wait to listen as it unfolds. I hope there are transcripts available, because there’s a lot of useful information and connections that I want to follow up on. This is Molly Wood at her best and most passionate.
  • Dr.V.PhD
    Interesting premise, great host
    I’ve followed Molly Wood’s work for a while and this show is in the same spirit as most of her other podcasts - insightful without being too heavy. I’m intrigued by the potential for this show and am glad to have her thoughts on the issue back in my regular listening cycle.
  • Not a politics nerd
    Molly is amazing
    SO GOOD to have Molly back on a podcast with her wit, smarts and knowledge. Love this show already. I’m here for more, please.
  • PBJSMCA

  • charlie987123
    Can’t wait for this one!
    Love all the content Molly puts out! I can’t wait to hear her interviewing people building the solutions that will impact the world! Ready to jump in the pool!!
