Orphan Wells, Carbon Credits, Climate Change & Industrial Hemp
b'
On this week\\u2019s hemp podcast we explore the intersection of the gas and oil industries with the hemp industry and how hemp can provide an opportunity for Big Oil to take responsibility for the over 3 million abandoned oil and gas wells that dot the American landscape.
Our guest is Mark Mersman from Offset Energy Partners who talks about The Well Done Foundation\\u2019s effort to plug leaky wells to fight climate change. We also talk about carbon credits and how they might persuade the oil and gas industry to do the right thing.
\\u201cThe credit markets are very eager to have projects that are eliminating emissions and if we can sequester methane gas or avoid emitting methane gas by plugging the well, there\'s a real value to that,\\u201d Mersman said.
