happy for @jasonclimateguy and excited for the launch for reasons that seem practical: 1) good people worked hard and paid money to learn about DAC 2) large businesses that can use DAC should know those things make progress -> save progress and this made me feel 100 years old

This will be true of a lot of climate tech 2.0 IP Where will it end up, will it be lost? Congrats to @jasonclimateguy for creating a solution for DAC
Direct Air Capture, once the darling of climate tech, is struggling. I wrote about a fascinating effort to buy IP and experimental data from failing startups before their learnings are lost to time, and make it available for others to carry forward heatmap.news/carbon-removal/…

Very excited to speak at DeCarbon Tokyo, taking place December 3-4, on two panels exploring the critical role Japan can play in scaling the CDR sector, & the opportunity DAC represents for Japanese stakeholders. Learn more & register to join us here: cmtevents.com/aboutevent.asp…

Wild that the day after news comes out that DOE is likely cancelling the major DAC Hub projects, the Nobel prize in chemistry is awarded to scientists whose breakthrough is materials that can capture CO2 bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

I see this study is making the rounds. It raises some valid points and misses others. But it certainly does not show "that Earth can safely store around 1,460 gigatons of carbon dioxide." Let's look at what the study really says🧵
“Researchers report that Earth can safely store around 1,460 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide (GtCO₂) — a number much lower than the 10,000–40,000 GtCO₂ often cited in previous studies.” nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

We’ve raised $162M—bringing Climeworks’ total funding to over $1B and marking 2025’s largest carbon removal investment. Backed by our existing investors, we’re scaling up Direct Air Capture and expanding carbon removal solutions for a net zero future. climeworks.com/press-release…

Great time at @CarbonEngineer DAC Camp yesterday. Learned a lot about the key advancements being made at the CE Innovation Center which will inform the 500k ton STRATOS plant. Also terrific seeing the gorgeous Squamish BC area! Thanks for the invite, @CarbonEngineer @1PointFive_

The scandal that wasn’t So many excited to celebrate the operational challenges of DAC without realizing it’s coming to their favorite climate tech next More from me: @heatmap_news heatmap.news/ideas/climework…

DAC projects are investable and can bring in hundreds of millions to the United States @WeAreOxy and @ADNOCGroup looking at a $500mm JV for the South Texas DAC hub This is exactly why the hubs program is so critical. It keeps the US as a tech leader and brings investment.

Since this Climeworks story is now ripping through socials, it's a good time for a little thread on the piece Early responses have all been dunking on DAC, but this is bigger than one technology What does the piece get right, what does it get wrong🧵 heimildin.is/grein/24581/cli…

This article has some fair points, and VC funding for DAC is slowing But some key context: 1. VC for climate is down across the board 2. DAC is in the “prove it” phase, we need FOAK funding more than VC 3. We’ve seen investment in storage/transport, enabling infrastructure
