SeaO2’s innovative technology harnesses the natural flow of ocean water to capture and store CO2, using electrochemical processes to treat and decarbonize the water. This decarbonized water is then returned to the ocean’s surface layer, where it can absorb more atmospheric CO2. Their compact carbon capture plant can be plugged into existing ocean infrastructure, making it adaptable and scalable. The captured carbon is then stored, and SeaO2 sells carbon credits to companies to help offset their irreducible emissions.

In this episode, Rose and Ruben discuss the technology behind SeaO2, the importance of oceanic carbon removal in addressing climate change, and the challenges they face in measuring and scaling their solution. They also explore the various possibilities for ocean-based carbon capture technologies, comparing SeaO2’s approach to other methods in the industry. Additionally, they dive into the regulatory and financial aspects of developing a new climate solution and their long-term vision for achieving global impact. With a focus on preserving ocean health and biodiversity, SeaO2 offers a promising solution for combating climate change while benefiting marine ecosystems.

In this episode of Sustain Now , we dive into an innovative solution to combat one of the most pressing environmental issues: methane emissions from livestock. The guest, Steve Meller, CEO and Co-founder of CH4 Global, takes us on a journey of discovering how seaweed can significantly reduce methane emissions from cattle. Founded in 2018, CH4 Global is on a mission to tackle methane—a greenhouse gas with more than 80 times the warming potential of CO2 over 20 years. Methane is primarily emitted by livestock, especially cattle, through their digestive process known as enteric fermentation. CH4 Global has developed a groundbreaking feed supplement using red seaweed (Asparagopsis) that, when added in small amounts to cattle feed, can reduce methane emissions by up to 90%. This solution is backed by scientific research from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) and others, showing its incredible potential to curb the climate impact of livestock farming. The episode also delves into CH4 Global's journey, from the launch of their first product, Methane Tamer™ Beef Feedlot, in April 2023, to the company's ambitious goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions at gigatonne scale by 2030. Steve shares insights into the challenges and opportunities the company faces, as they work to scale up seaweed production to meet global demand. With a $47 million investment backing their efforts, CH4 Global is making strides in producing and processing Asparagopsis efficiently, aiming to help farmers reduce emissions and tackle climate change head-on. The episode covers pivotal moments in Steve's entrepreneurial journey, including insights on entrepreneurship later in life, the challenges of scaling a business, and the loneliness of running a startup. Steve reflects on his experiences and how mentorship from seasoned entrepreneurs can play a critical role in guiding younger startups. We also explore the global methane challenge and the importance of focusing on this potent greenhouse gas, especially with initiatives like the 2021 Global Methane Pledge. Despite increased international efforts, more innovation is needed in agriculture to address methane emissions. CH4 Global’s solution is one of the many important tools required to mitigate the effects of climate change. Join us as we discuss the science, challenges, and future of CH4 Global’s seaweed-based solution to methane emissions in livestock, and how such innovations offer hope for solving the climate crisis.

26: BiCRS - How can biomass contribute to negative emissions in the future? A conversation with Stefanie Bischoff, Managing Director of Airfix 37:32

hace 1 year37:32

37:32

Stephanie Bischof, Managing Director of AirFix, shares insights into the growing field of Biomass Carbon Removal and Storage (BiCRS), a critical solution to reducing carbon emissions and mitigating climate change. With over a decade of experience in corporate finance, Stephanie transitioned into the climate field after being inspired by a documentary on soil health. Since 2022, she has been leading AirFix, a company focused on developing carbon capture infrastructure and creating markets for negative emission technologies in Switzerland and across Europe. BiCRS focuses on capturing and removing biogenic CO2, which comes from the combustion of biologically based materials, such as those from the paper industry, biomass power plants, and waste-to-energy facilities. Unlike fossil fuel emissions, biogenic CO2 is part of the natural carbon cycle. When captured and stored, it results in a net reduction of atmospheric CO2, making it an effective method for offsetting emissions in key industries. AirFix’s mission is twofold: to accelerate the growth of the BiCRS market in Europe and to remove 5 million tonnes of CO2 over the next 10 years. The company advises emitters on carbon removal strategies, connects them with specialists, and helps build the necessary supply chains. AirFix is currently working on its first major project, which aims to remove 21,800 tonnes of CO2 over the next 5 years. In this episode, Stephanie delves into the complexities of CO2 capture, including the logistical challenges and costs involved. She discusses the role of Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) credits in helping companies meet sustainability targets and the regulatory landscape for carbon capture. The conversation also explores the potential of scaling the CDR industry, the challenges of transporting and storing CO2, and the broader market for carbon removal solutions. Stephanie shares her vision for AirFix’s future, providing valuable insights into how carbon removal technologies can drive real change in the fight against climate change.…
