The Full Story
The Need for Carbon Removal
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has consistently highlighted the critical role of carbon removal in limiting global warming to 1.5°C or 2°C above pre-industrial levels. According to the IPCC, achieving these targets requires not only significant reductions in emissions but also the large-scale removal of carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere. Without such efforts, current emissions trajectories could lead to catastrophic climate impacts.
Direct Air Capture (DAC)
Direct Air Capture (DAC) is an innovative solution that addresses this challenge by removing CO₂ directly from the air, regardless of its source. Unlike traditional methods that target specific emission points, DAC enables negative emissions—essential for offsetting sectors where decarbonization is more challenging, such as aviation and heavy industry. Organizations such as the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the National Academy of Sciences have emphasized that deploying carbon removal technologies alongside renewable energy and efficiency measures is critical to meeting global climate goals.
Our Approach
At Verified Carbon, we deploy high-efficiency Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology powered by renewable energy, such as wind and solar, to create scalable, sustainable carbon capture solutions. We collaborate closely with landowners, communities, and local universities to ensure our projects deliver shared value—supporting local economies, fostering education, and enabling net-negative carbon goals. Together, we aim to build a sustainable future for both the environment and the communities we serve.
