🌍✨ Sustainability In Your Ear: XPRIZE’s David Babson on Why Climate Grand Challenges Need Buyers, Too
Why we’re watching: Buyers contracted nearly 30 million tons of durable carbon removal in 2025, more than triple the 2024 total, according to CDR.fyi data reported by Heatmap.
About 90% of those purchases came from a single company, Microsoft, and suppliers delivered only about 450,000 tons during the year. 💚
That is a sliver of the six to 10 billion tons of removal a year that climate scenarios suggest the world will need by 2050.
