Nature-based solutions work. They’re cost effective. They advance climate mitigation, adaptation, and biodiversity protection. They do need more financing strategies, however. To meet global biodiversity, climate, and land restoration targets, nature-based investment must increase 2.5 times to $571 billion annually by 2030—equivalent to just 0.5% of global GDP, states the … [continued]
Researchers are developing new materials to improve the performance of sodium-ion batteries for stationary energy storage and EVs, too (shown here, an outer layer protects the core of the carbon anode, courtesy of BAM).

Geoengineering raised its misshapen head today. Someone tagged me on a post on LinkedIn related to a firm that wants to put a common antacid into the oceans to bond with carbon dioxide they’ve absorbed. I nerded out and am deeply skeptical about the entire thing. That’s a pity, as … [continued]
InPlanet is a German-Brazilian startup pioneering the use of Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW) as a method for large-scale carbon removals. Founded in August 2022, it recently completed a successful pre-seed funding round, securing backing from a range of international investors. InPlanet has also joined Carbonfuture’s Catalyst program and participated in … [continued]
Avoiding the worst effects of the climate emergency is a hugely complex problem. Where can we store all the carbon we have been blowing into the atmosphere for years? ‘Just capture it, recycle or bury…’ Carbon Management is the popular magic word. But new technologies like carbon capture also show … [continued]
Benjamin Schulz: When did you create Ebb Carbon, and what’s the story behind it? What was your initial motivation to create Ebb Carbon? Ben Tarbell: We started about a year ago in February 2021, and our company stems from the broader area of research of Matt Eisaman, Ebb Carbon’s Chief … [continued]
This month it was announced that Microsoft had selected Carbonfuture to be an integral part of its carbon removal portfolio. This deal aims to support Microsoft’s ambitious climate pledge to become entirely carbon negative by 2030, and stands as yet another indicator of much-needed climate action. In terms of carbon … [continued]
Benjamin Schulz: Hi Noah! What is the background story of Carbon180 and what led you to create the organization? Noah Deich: When we launched Carbon180 about six years ago at this point, the idea of carbon removal was far outside of the mainstream of climate policy and business decisions. And … [continued]
