A few weeks ago, Frey Lindsay interviewed me and our lively discussion led to the creation of this article https://lnkd.in/dPvpKs6P 🔖 💫 The 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗻 𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗮𝗹 space is one of the most critical and promising frontiers for tackling anthropogenic climate change. I’ve been involved in this field since 2016, a time when only a handful of passionate developers were creating CDR solutions and I knew then that I wanted to play a role in supporting its growth. Since then, I’ve contributed in many ways: as an advisor, founder, developer, investor, and by helping build market platforms and supporting corporates purchasing their ideal removals portfolio. It’s been incredible to witness - and be part of - this market’s evolution from those early days! For CDR to scale at the pace required, we need more than innovation. We need 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁, 𝗮𝗺𝗯𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗴𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘂𝘆𝗲𝗿𝘀 are just as vital as technological breakthroughs. Many organisations are still trying to understand what CDR means, how it fits into their goals, and why it’s a vital piece of the climate puzzle. Market growth is about building understanding, trust, and partnerships that lead to real impact on the ground.

Onwards and upwards! ✨ 🚀 Satgana Romain Diaz Anil Maguru Desirée Pettersson  Patch Bee Hui Yeh Aaron Grunfeld Brennan Spellacy Thanks, Noah Deich, for introducing me to CDR back in our business school days!
