Carbon Capture - carbon binding for climate protection

Carbon capture is a key technology in the fight against climate change.

It enables the capture of carbon from the atmosphere and its permanent storage in the form of long-lived carbon pools.

In contrast to some conventional processes that rely on complex and energy-intensive technologies, Planetzero.earth follows a natural and sustainable approach. By combining bamboo plantations, wastewater treatment and biochar production, we harness the power of nature while creating valuable resources such as clean water and biochar.

Our advantages over conventional carbon capture processes are:

Natural approach

We use the natural carbon capture capacity of fast-growing bamboo and combine it with efficient wastewater treatment systems and biochar production.

Resource conservation

Our solutions reduce the consumption of water and energy and contribute to the circular economy.

Diverse applications

In addition to CO₂ sequestration, our projects generate additional valuable products such as clean water, biochar and renewable energy.

Why is carbon removal important in the fight against global warming?

Let's talk about unavoidable and historical emissions.

As mentioned, the most important action we can all take to stop global warming is to reduce our carbon footprint. According to the IPCC and Science Based Targets Initiative, we must reduce our CO₂ emissions by at least 90% by 2050, but there will still be around 10% unavoidable emissions left.

CO₂ removal is critical to neutralizing these emissions and keeping global warming below 1.5°C.

Then there is the question of the carbon emissions already released into the atmosphere - these are historic emissions. There are billions of tons of historical CO₂ emissions in our atmosphere that need to be removed in order for us to go beyond carbon neutrality and achieve net negative emissions, i.e. removing more carbon than we produce.

CO₂ removal is the only way to achieve this and help restore balance to our climate.

Beyond unavoidable and historical emissions, CO₂ removal is also an important safeguard in the fight against climate change. If there is a transient temperature spike of 1.5°C, additional carbon removal could help bring the temperature back down.
