Climate change is the biggest challenge of our generation and thus has to be solved urgently. We are inspired by the beauty of this planet. It is the only one we have.
Our vision is to sequester 1 GT of CO2 while regenerating tropical soils in order to create a livable planet with nutritious food and healthy ecosystems for future generations.
We remove CARBON with natural ROCK POWDER
Permanent
Carbon will be locked away for 1000+ years
Scalable
No additional infrastructure and high-tech machinery necessary
Safe
No negative side effects to the environment
Enhanced rock weathering
Throughout the earth’s history, most of our atmospheric carbon dioxide has been removed through the weathering of silicate rocks. Silicate rock reacts with water and CO2 and as a result, dissolved bicarbonates are produced. Eventually, they wash away through rivers into the oceans where they form carbon-rich sediments.
We at InPlanet accelerate this natural carbon removal process by distributing rock powder on agricultural land in the tropics because there its weathering potential is the highest. Besides its carbon removal ability, enhanced weathering regenerates tropical soils and fertilizes crops. This also allows farmers to reduce the input of limestone, synthetic fertilisers and pesticides. Therefore our projects also contribute to more sustainable farming.

How it works
Farmers
We enable farmers in the tropics to use natural rock powders from local mines instead of limestone, synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.
Companies
We sell Carbon Removal Credits for every tonne of carbon sequestered and in that way can help companies to achieve their Net-Zero commitments.
Co-Benefits
Soils are regenerated as a result of the nutrient addition from the fresh rock minerals. Thereby we support the restoration of ecosystems and the production of healthy fruits and vegetables.
Additionality
The access to Carbon Finance is crucial, because the farmers could not afford to replace synthetic chemicals with natural rock powders by themselves.
