Podcast Interview with: Vinton Cerf, co-father of the Internet & Vice President and Chief Internet Evangelist at Google

Super excited about Episode 40 of #TheClimateChampions, featuring Vint Cerf.

In addition to being considered the co-father of the Internet and Vice President and Chief Internet Evangelist at Google, he was presented the US National Medal of Technology by President Bill Clinton, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President George Bush. He also co-founded the Internet Society and served as president of ICANN, the operator of the domain naming system.

We talk a lot about the usual, climate change, energy storage, renewable energy, etc., but also about the Internet, IoT, my first company, Tandem Computers (now Hewlett Packard Enterprise), and my favorite moment of the interview, Al Gore's role in Internet history.
