\n\t\t\tClimos will explore and commercialize large scale techniques for removing CO2 from the atmosphere\u2014focusing on natural solutions which are complimentary to the Earth\u2019s existing carbon cycle. The company\u2019s initial focus, known as Ocean Iron Fertilization (OIF), works by improving the efficiency of natural phytoplankton production in the open ocean. Phytoplankton are responsible for approximately half of the world\u2019s annual CO2 absorbtion capability. As they continually bloom, mature and die in a 60-day lifecycle, a portion of their biomass sinks to depth, locking away carbon for long periods of time. This process, called the \u201cbiologic pump\u201d is one of the oldest ecological mechanisms on Earth. Over the last several hundred million years it has helped concentrate over 80% of all mobile carbon in the deep ocean as sediments and dissolved bicarbonates.«Less
