Carbon removal at scale: agricultural adoption and urban innovation

In market
Company

2025 marked a breakthrough year for Canadian Wollastonite and our UK partner UNDO Carbon, establishing enhanced rock weathering (ERW) as a credible and scalable climate solution. Together, we achieved milestones that set the stage for rapid growth: • 🏆 Secured global recognition as a $5M XPRIZE Carbon Removal winner, with 1,209 net tonnes of CO₂ removed in Canada.

• 🤝 Expanded partnerships through our largest agreement to date with Microsoft, supported by innovative debt financing from the Inlandsis Fund and underwritten by CFC. • 🏦 Enabled Barclays to sign its first-ever carbon removal offtake, advancing financial market participation in durable CDR. • 🚜 Welcomed Farm Credit Canada as an investor in community-based carbon removal, reinforcing agricultural adoption at scale. • 🌽 Delivered impact on the ground: 34,620 tonnes of wollastonite spread across 96 farms, projected to remove 11,425 tonnes of CO₂ while enriching 9,360 acres of cropland. • 🔬 Strengthened the scientific and operational foundations required to scale ERW with transparency and credibility. Looking ahead to 2026, our focus is clear: • Agricultural Expansion: Scale adoption to more than 165,000 tonnes of wollastonite spread, deepening partnerships with farmers and lenders to accelerate climate-positive practices. • Urban Innovation: Launch a new urban agriculture segment, building retail markets for gardens, lawn care, pond care, and environmental traction sands—bringing carbon removal directly into communities. Together, these efforts will advance our mission to scale carbon removal across both rural and urban landscapes, powered by strategic partnerships and grounded in scientific integrity.
