  • サマリー

  • In this episode of ⁠SIGNIFICANT⁠, we explore two astonishing tales where science and industry collided – with world-altering consequences. First, the untold story of how Pemex geologist Glen Penfield uncovered clues to the Chicxulub impact crater decades before its role in the extinction of the dinosaurs was recognized—a discovery delayed by corporate priorities and scientific blind spots. Then, we delve into the legacy of Thomas Midgley Jr., whose groundbreaking innovations - tetraethyl lead and CFCs - once solved pressing problems but left catastrophic environmental and public health legacies.

    These stories reveal the uneasy, often dangerous, partnership between science and industry; and the unintended consequences that have shaped our world.
