Preliminary Findings from Halifax 2023 – Planetary Speaks with NSIS
Earlier this month, Planetary’s Dr. Will Burt spoke to the Nova Scotian Institute of Science about Planetary’s Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE), focusing on our operations in Halifax leading up to and including our trial in winter 2023. The Nova Scotian Institute of Science (NSIS) is a non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting and stimulating scientific […]
“Inventive Intervention for the Climate” An Article from Climate Story Network
Another feature of Planetary’s work in Nova Scotia highlighted by Climate Story Network. This article has a nice overview of our Tufts Cove Project along with the dye tracer study performed by Dalhousie University. We loved this quote from Holly Jean Buck Holly Jean Buck, the author of books like After Geoengineering and Ending Fossil […]
“An Alkaline Solution” – Planetary and OAE highlighted in Science
Planetary’s work in Nova Scotia has been highlighted in a Science magazine feature. The feature takes our Tufts Cove project as a case study while describing the broader state of Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) research internationally, noting rising interest in the field, significant environmental and economic potential, and ongoing work being done to […]
OAE Now Operational in Halifax
Planetary is thrilled to announce that our Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) process is now operational in Halifax, where it is successfully removing tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere every day. To our knowledge, this is the first carbon-negative OAE project operating anywhere in the world, and it is the next step of our […]
