Passive mineral DAC --
I'm a solid oxide,
In trays, not a box.
I've got no fan,
I'm just crushed rocks.
When I get all filled up,
Here me shout!
Heat me up, and pull the CO2 out.

We have gigatons of capacity in onshore saline aquifers for CO2 storage.
How do we come to that number? How do we make it more accurate?

Stopping CO2 emissions is the holy grail. Permanently removing CO2 from the atmosphere for <$100 p/t will also be vital. How will this cost reduction happen? Great piece by and explaining the drivers for this #ClimateCrisis #COP27 #ClimateAction

Rapidly reducing the costs of #carbonremoval requires a clear understanding of different cost reduction factors.
Grateful to have Grant Faber write a guest post that spells out the cost reduction potential of each factor to bring down the cost of CDR.

The world needs more climate philanthropy and less carbon dioxide.
That’s why we started Terraset, a new 501(c)(3) that helps people support high-quality carbon removal.

DAC is changing fast. And the constraints (land, power, storage) are changing as well. New report from and commentary from
demonstrate that.
Some surprising outcomes!

"The bill is just a monumental accelerator for a whole host of technologies that serve to decarbonize one sector or another,”-
It's "massive,"- . "This will speed up our [DAC tech] deployment by several years.”

We couldn’t be more thrilled about the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act. It gives Direct Air Capture, and other renewable energy and climate technologies the essential boost we need to scale to the size required to tackle climate challenge!

In March, Microsoft became an early investor in our efforts to remove carbon from the atmosphere. Today, they're the latest customer of our carbon removal credits and to work toward a long-term agreement to continue purchasing credits over the coming years. Thank you Microsoft!

Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is not the same as carbon capture and sequestration (CCS), and we need to stop inaccurately conflating the two.
CDR removes atmospheric CO2. Its carbon negative.
CCS (w/fossil fuels) reduces the amount of CO2 emitted. It's at best carbon neutral.

DAC only makes sense if combined with efforts to decarbonize electricity grids. Work needs to be done on improving DAC systems and driving down energy usage - a core focus of ours at Heirloom.
