AI, Carbon Removal and Colorado’s Next Chapter | Arky Jones and Chris Komor
Description
Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.
Could the rapid growth of AI infrastructure be turned into an environmental advantage rather than another climate burden?
In this episode of Peek Inside, Arky Jones talks with Chris Komor about a different way of thinking about Colorado’s future. Their conversation connects AI data centers, carbon removal, renewable energy, local jobs, farming communities, and the challenge of building economic growth without ignoring environmental costs.
Komor outlines his idea of linking hyperscale data centers with direct air carbon removal facilities, using heat generated by computing infrastructure as part of a broader carbon-capture system. The discussion then expands into what this could mean for local industry, energy production, community investment, and new opportunities across Colorado.
Rather than treating technology and sustainability as opposing forces, the episode asks whether they can be designed to support one another.
It is a practical conversation about innovation, leadership, climate responsibility, and what a more resilient Colorado could look like.
