BC’s Carbon Engineering gets $25 million from federal government | Venture
The federal government has announced $25 million in funding for Carbon Engineering (CE), which will be used to help the company progress its technology.
Direct Air Capture: Recent developments and future plans
Although little is known about the technology’s efficiency, safety, economic impacts or the likelihood that it will actually reduce overall carbon emissions, several companies have already started marketing DAC as a climate solution, and propose capturing CO2 as a feedstock for industrial uses.

Activists Call It A ‘False Solution.’ But UN Scientists Say We Need To Suck Up CO2.
The latest global climate report makes clear we need to suck carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere, and “planting trees” won’t be enough.
The Dream of Carbon Air Capture Edges Toward Reality
Next month, an industrial facility in Iceland will join a growing number of projects to remove CO2 from the air and put it underground. But major hurdles, including high costs, remain before this technology can be widely deployed and play a key role in tackling climate change.
Carbon removal tech could help us draw down historic pollution and go beyond net-zero. But it needs the right policy.
A new paper explores policy tools that federal policymakers could use to quickly and responsibly begin deployment of Direct Air Capture facilities, a possible carbon removal approach that could help get the U.S. to net-negative emissions.
The climate crisis requires every tool we’ve got, including carbon removal
Fortunately, we have the tools to change course. We just need to ensure they’re used responsibly.
