She is passionate about raising awareness of the problems associated with climate change and set up her company H2GO to provide a solution. Enass explains her vision to Trevor Cox &#8211; to store renewable energy as low-cost hydrogen with&nbsp;zero emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Manjot began his career as an apprentice engineer with Jaguar. He tells Trevor how his desire to change people&#8217;s lives for the better led him to switch to a career in renewable energy &#8211; and it turns out the skills he learned in the car industry are transferrable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We mix fact and fiction in Inventive and in this edition, writer <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/linkedin.com\/in\/dr-george-sandifer-smith-phd-78830319b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">George Sandifer-Smith<\/a><\/strong>&#8216;s short story highlights one of the biggest challenges in the climate change movement &#8211; people.
