Pioneering a potential trillion-dollar industry, Climeworks removes CO2 from the air and stores it underground.In the latest episode of Scottish Mortgage’s Invest in Progress podcast, Climeworks co-founder Christoph Gebald explains the role the company hopes to play in mitigating those emissions that cannot be reduced by other means.Climeworks’ dedication to its mission, its innovative direct air capture technology, and its commitment to scaling carbon removal make it a key player in the fight against climate change. As the first company to establish commercial-scale operational plants, its Iceland plant is the only one with third-party verification of its carbon removal capabilities.Scottish Mortgage invests in Climeworks as an early pioneer in an industry addressing a global issue – climate change – where the company could become a significant presence over time. Within 25 years, direct air capture facilities could be as commonplace as wind or solar farms are today, and the industry an equivalent size to today’s oil and gas industry.Although still early in its journey, if the company succeeds in scaling, it has the potential to create a multi-billion-dollar revenue stream.If you're interested in using Climeworks’ service as an individual, visit: https://climeworks.com/subscriptionsCheck the podcast description to ensure this content is suitable for you.
