  • Through natural mechanisms, CO₂ is returned to the earth’s crust, where it becomes part of the rock cycle

  • The planet has the capacity to safely store trillions of tons of CO₂

  • Once stored, the CO₂ remains locked away for geological timescales

  • We work with trusted partners to ensure safe and permanent storage

Tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.
