In this special interview, the Urth.io CEO discusses the critical role of soil carbon in tackling climate change and her mission to reshape the future of sustainable business.

Samantha Jewell, founder and CEO of Urth.io, is on a mission to change the way businesses think about Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles, particularly in the area of soil carbon stewardship.

In a recent on Ticker News, Jewell underscored the importance of reducing carbon emissions and the critical role businesses can play in addressing climate change.

One key focus of Urth.io is supporting farmers in creating carbon offsets through responsible soil management.

“Soil carbon is one of the most underappreciated tools we have to combat climate change,” Jewell explained.

However, she acknowledges the challenges, particularly the complexity of regulations and the need to shift mindsets among both farmers and buyers.

Revealing book

Jewell’s book, Carbon is Not a Dirty Word, serves as a practical guide for businesses and individuals looking to implement sustainable practices.

“The book is about making sustainability accessible, whether you’re a business leader or a farmer,” she said.

As ESG becomes a central concern for many industries, Jewell believes that education and a commitment to long-term change are essential.

Former President Joe Biden’s farewell letter to President Trump shows civility, wishing him well, highlighting a tradition that transcends political divides.

This letter was made public by Fox News and showcases a rare moment of civility between these two polarising figures in American politics.

In the letter, Biden expresses his best wishes for Trump and his family as he departs from the presidency.

Biden’s note reads:
“Dear President Trump,

As I take leave of this sacred office, I wish you and your family all the best in the next four years. The American people – and people around the world – look to this house for steadiness in the inevitable storms of history, and my prayer is that in the coming years will be a time of prosperity, peace, and grace for our nation.

May God bless you and guide you as He has blessed and guided our beloved country since our founding.

Joe Biden 1-20-25.”

The letter concludes with a prayer for guidance and blessings for Trump, reflecting the sentiments often associated with presidential transitions.

This gesture may be viewed as a simple act of goodwill or simply as politics at play.
