  • The world's largest facility designed to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere started operations in Iceland.
  • It is dubbed as "Mammoth," this plant is Climeworks' second commercial direct air capture (DAC) facility.
  • This cutting-edge technology draws in air and chemically extracts carbon dioxide, which can then be stored underground, converted into stone, or reused.
  • The Mammoth direct air capture and storage (DAC+S) plant run by Climeworks is 10 times bigger than the Swiss company’s previous plant, Orca.
