Portfolio Spotlight: Syntopa — Supercharging Enhanced Weathering with Microbes
What if a few liters of bacteria-laced water could double—or even quintuple—the speed at which rock dust pulls carbon from the atmosphere?
Portfolio Spotlight: Inplanet, EW in Brazil
InPlanet is on pace to spread 200 kilotons of basalt early this year.
Why we are ditching most replicates in favor of having more variations
For our new experiment we will move away from replicating treatments to intentionally choose more variations over more replicates. Here is why.
Portfolio Spotlight: Tropicarbon, EW in Colombia
Tropicarbon decided to tackle agriculture, an industry with some of the highest CO2 emissions.
Climate tech is entering its toughest funding environment in years.
Here are three trends that will make it harder for climate startups to get fresh capital. Plus, there are opportunities, too.
What dismantling an EW greenhouse experiment looks like
In preparation of the next experiment we have dismantled most of our 2023/2024 greenhouse experiment with 400 lysimeter pots over recent weeks.
How we assess the CDR effect of an EW experiment
We use alkalinity measurements comparing treated and untreated pot experiments to measure the CDR effect of a rock dust addition to a specific soil.

“Failed” enhanced weathering experiments create valuable insights
With our field and greenhouse experiments we spent several hundred thousand US$ on failed experiments. Here’s why it was still money well spent!
