- Carbon Engineering | World Economic Forum
Carbon Engineering’s Direct Air Capture technology captures CO2 directly out of the atmosphere at large scale so it can be permanently and safely stored deep underground or turned into ultra-low carbon synthetic fuels This proven technology can help any company, country or individual address their carbon footprint and achieve critical net-zero targets by providing a tool to deliver climate
- How does direct air capture work? | World Economic Forum
Climeworks and Carbon Engineering are two new World Economic Forum Technology Pioneers Both are working on direct air capture, which removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere The captured CO2 can be stored or reused
- BioCarbon Engineering | World Economic Forum
BioCarbon Engineering will enable global scale ecosystem restoration by planting at least 1 billion trees each year with drones Each year, 15 Billion trees are destroyed from natural or anthropogenic causes Despite heroic international tree-planting campaigns, there is an annual net loss of 6B trees This short-fall is exacerbated because hand-planting is slow and expensive and cannot match
- How engineering animals and plants could help fight climate change
The process of resurrecting traits from extinct animals is commonly referred to as “de-extinction," and scientists hope to bring back the woolly mammoth to preserve the tundra Engineering other animals and plants can help revive the ocean, protect food systems, and remove carbon from the atmosphere There is potential for genetic engineering to bolster the response to climate change, but
- 5 tech innovations that could save us from climate change
Carbon Engineering is a Canadian start-up which is working on exactly that – taking carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere and then using it to produce fuel
- Giant carbon-dioxide sucking fans are helping tackle climate change
From dimming the sunlight to using fans to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, geo-engineering could offer hope to tackle global warming
- Bill Gates is backing a plan for air to fuels technology
Carbon Engineering estimates that once scaled up, the technology could produce fuels for less than $1 per litre The process of converting CO2 into fuels using ‘air to fuels’ technology Image: Carbon Engineering Their process, known as “air to fuels” (or A2F) consists of three main steps First, CO2 is captured from the air and purified
- How to build smart, zero carbon buildings | World Economic Forum
Efficient, zero carbon buildings take advantage of available, cost-effective technology to reduce emissions while increasing health, equity and economic prosperity in local communities There are four crucial trends driving zero carbon buildings: decarbonization, electrification, efficiency and digitalization
