To help the CDR industry scale and reach its potential, it needs more investment, buyers, and vision. I’m proud that @SpiritusCDR is part of the impact @terrasetclimate is driving to that end via “one of the largest philanthropic purchases of carbon removal ever.”.

We just purchased $3 million in carbon removal, which will remove more than 5,000 tons of CO2 from 11 organizations. This isn’t just our largest purchase. It’s one of the largest philanthropic purchases of carbon removal ever. Read more here:

I know @Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol is busy, so I’ve got an idea to make his corporate travel responsible: @SpiritusCDR will remove the carbon from his flights this month (100 tons of CO2) in exchange for a few (thousand) Pumpkin Spice Lattes. How about it?.

While companies are setting new benchmarks in corporate sustainability, the rapid adoption of AI requires them to accelerate their efforts to balance rising energy demands. I shared more about these growing concerns with @Lifewire. #Sustainability #AI.

Apple spent a lot of time building a reputation as an environmentally conscious brand, but with AI, all that seems to go out the window, which could be to Apple's detriment.

I got the chance to speak with @IKrietzberg at @TheStreet about @SpiritusCDR, our process' diminished energy needs to directly capture carbon from the air, and bringing a collective good to reducing carbon emissions.
