Planetary’s OAE technology assessed against the CarbonPlan CDR Verification Framework
CarbonPlan’s Verification Framework (VF) inventorises the uncertainties affecting various carbon dioxide removal (CDR) pathways, assesses the impact of each uncertainty on the quantification of net removals, and categorizes the overall quantification capacity of each method using a Verification Confidence Level (VCL). In the September 2022 first release of the VF, Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) by […]
Healing our Oceans, Healing our Climate: An Ambitious Call for All Hands on Deck
The ocean is a powerful, nurturing force. It provides us with every second breath we take, it shapes our weather, and it is home to an incredible array of wildlife. However, our ocean is also on the front lines of climate change, absorbing carbon dioxide and heat to regulate the Earth’s climate. The theme of […]
Survey work in St Ives Bay
Safety and scientific rigour are at the heart of the proposed Planetary project to restore the climate and the ocean using ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE). In May 2023, Planetary carried out baseline survey work in St Ives Bay, as previously announced. This work marked the next step in our longer-term monitoring programme in St. Ives […]
