Making a Real Difference for Our Planet
If you drank a paper straw to fight pollution and save the environment, chances are, you want to help, but just don't know how.
Paper straws didn't actually help--- they made all our drinks taste like paper and put more carbon into the environment.
However, if you drank out of a paper straw, I am willing to bet you care about the environment, you just don't know how to help.

HI. I'M JOEL WHITWORTH.
A Critical Environmental Discovery
I've uncovered a pattern in environmental data that could be key to fighting climate change.
As a former IBM data analyst with 35 years of experience, My research suggests that current vehicle catalytic converter designs may be contributing significantly more to global warming than previously understood.
This isn't about paper straws or small gestures. This is about fundamental change that could dramatically reduce global warming—and you can be part of it.
After 20 years at IBM and a lifetime of analyzing data, I've found something that demands attention.
While we were focusing on paper straws and reusable bags, our cars were quietly contributing to global warming in ways we never imagined.
Our vehicles' catalytic converters are pumping out nitrous oxide at alarming rates.
From IBM to Environmental Research
I spent 20 years at IBM turning complex data into actionable insights. Now, I'm using those same skills to tackle climate change.
Nitrous oxide is a potent greenhouse gas
Vehicle emissions affect everyone, everywhere
The catalytic converters in our vehicles are emitting nitrous oxide at an alarming rate.

Don't let this be another paper straw—a well-intentioned but ineffective solution.
Be part of real, meaningful change.
How You Can Help
JOIN THE INITIATIVE
If you're an engineer, chemist, inventor, or environmental scientist, I invite you to review the data. If you know someone in these fields, share this with them. We need voices like yours to advocate for change and help us connect with decision-makers in the automotive industry and environmental policy.
