5 Ways Startups are Removing CO2 from Our Air
We know the world is currently on a dangerous path. CO2 levels in our atmosphere are at more than 400 parts per million. Obviously, the world needs to reduce CO2 emissions, but at the end of the day, that might not be enough, so some companies have started fighting back. Here are five of the most promising startups in the fight against climate change.

Startups Mentioned in the Video
High Hopes Labs- Seeks to remove CO2 directly from the air (Direct Air Capture) but instead of doing it on the ground like everyone else, they want to do it 9 miles into the atmosphere where CO2 is almost at its freezing point, making it substantially easier [and more cost effective] to extract.
CarbonCure- is injecting CO2 into cement as it’s mixed, to both strengthen the eventual structures it will form, and permanently trap CO2 and prevent it from being re-released into the atmosphere.
AirCompany- Who says you can’t party and fight climate change at the same time? By using their patented technology, AirCo is turning CO2 into vodka and eventually wants to expand into other alcohols, jet fuel, and even sugar production.
DeepBranch- Rather than deforestation for crops and invasive fishing, DeepBranch wants to produce nutrients for livestock by turning CO2 into protien. And since it can be done locally at the farms, it greatly reduces emissions associated with transporting livestock feed.
LiquidWind- LiquidWind seeks to turn the wind into liquid….. And by that I mean convert CO2 into liquid fuel to power transportation, meaning less reliance on fossil fuels.

Do you think big oil will allow this?what about heavy taxes on car industry?

What method do you think is most promising?

The easiest would be if they develop the infrastructure differently, give up on cars....second would be also to stop the coal heating and stop exploiting the natural resources of the ground. biggest co2 emission creators are still the big industries (including agriculture etc) and transportation.
So either we find a way soon to capture more co2 from the atmosphere, or we will never reach the 1, 5 * degree target if we don't stop everything.
Compensation has become a big trend, but unfortunately it leads to green washing as its the easiest way to give your money on projects which can not be tracked or they are not so sustainable
and say that you are green...
