Biochar vs DAC

CDRScoop is proud to present this special edition SHOWDOWN: Biochar vs Direct Air Capture. While we all know that we need all CDR pathways to reach gigaton scale and fight climate change, we all have our favorites. So be sure to join for a fun, interactive, first of a kind debate. And we picked two real heavyweights: DAC, the poster-child of CDR, with over 200 DAC companies founded to date. On the other hand, biochar, responsible for a whopping 84% of all durable CDR deliveries to date. In the DAC corner: Martin Freimüller is the Co-Founder and CEO of Octavia Carbon – the first DAC company in the Global South and fifth largest in the world. He moved his life to Kenya in 2021 on realising it's the world's best place for DAC. In the Biochar corner: Sebastian Manhart is Senior Policy Advisor at Carbonfuture and a Board Member of the International Biochar Initiative. Few post as much about biochar as Sebastian. The wonderful and impartial @Eve Tamme will moderate to make sure we keep it punchy (not literally), informative, and entertaining. WE NEED YOU. Join us, ask questions, and importantly VOTE on the livestream as we declare the WINNER.
