Meme 🧵: CDR 101 to close out carbon removal week! (1/15)

[Jason Hochman @jasonclimateguy]

@PeterOlivier Thanks for the support, Peter! Unfortunately there's no autosave feature yet for hard tech R&D learnings yet so had to go back in time a bit. Acronym worked too - CTRL-S = Climate Tech Rescue, License, & Scale.

happy for @jasonclimateguy and excited for the launch for reasons that seem practical:
1) good people worked hard and paid money to learn about DAC
2) large businesses that can use DAC should know those things

make progress -> save progress

and this made me feel 100 years old

@AndreasenJack Thanks for the support and helping to spread the word, @AndreasenJack!

This will be true of a lot of climate tech 2.0 IP

Where will it end up, will it be lost?

Congrats to @jasonclimateguy for creating a solution for DAC

[Emily Pontecorvo @emilypont]

Direct Air Capture, once the darling of climate tech, is struggling. I wrote about a fascinating effort to buy IP and experimental data from failing startups before their learnings are lost to time, and make it available for others to carry forward

Very excited to speak at DeCarbon Tokyo, taking place December 3-4, on two panels exploring the critical role Japan can play in scaling the CDR sector, & the opportunity DAC represents for Japanese stakeholders.

Wild that the day after news comes out that DOE is likely cancelling the major DAC Hub projects, the Nobel prize in chemistry is awarded to scientists whose breakthrough is materials that can capture CO2 https://t.co/pYIxKx57qg

Excited to help shape the agenda of @UnboundSummits Carbon Unbound West Coast as a member of the Advisory Board for the January 22-23, 2026 event taking place in Vancouver, Canada.

I see this study is making the rounds. It raises some valid points and misses others.

But it certainly does not show "that Earth can safely store around 1,460 gigatons of carbon dioxide."

Let's look at what the study really says🧵

We’ve raised $162M—bringing Climeworks’ total funding to over $1B and marking 2025’s largest carbon removal investment. Backed by our existing investors, we’re scaling up Direct Air Capture and expanding carbon removal solutions for a net zero future. https://t.co/2j8IYyGApI

Excited to participate and share my insights on the state of play and future prospects for DAC at this year's @energyintel @EI_Forum

Great time at @CarbonEngineer DAC Camp yesterday. Learned a lot about the key advancements being made at the CE Innovation Center which will inform the 500k ton STRATOS plant.
Also terrific seeing the gorgeous Squamish BC area!
Thanks for the invite, @CarbonEngineer @1PointFive_

The scandal that wasn’t

So many excited to celebrate the operational challenges of DAC without realizing it’s coming to their favorite climate tech next

DAC projects are investable and can bring in hundreds of millions to the United States

@WeAreOxy and @ADNOCGroup looking at a $500mm JV for the South Texas DAC hub

This is exactly why the hubs program is so critical. It keeps the US as a tech leader and brings investment.

[Jason Hochman @jasonclimateguy]

Meanwhile, in other DAC news, just a $500M deal in the works @1PointFive_ https://t.co/cKMvpgSBal

@foam_boat @AndreasenJack @AkshatRathi @joelgombiner Some will go better than others, some won't go well at all, which is to be expected. It's the only way we'll actually understand what works & what doesn't in real world conditions & how to make incremental improvements based on experience in the field, i.e. "learning by doing"

[Jason Hochman @jasonclimateguy]

@foam_boat @AndreasenJack @AkshatRathi @joelgombiner There are a lot more projects out there utilizing a variety of different approaches than just the more well known ones. https://t.co/zrkuFWiI0F
