Brilliant Planet Natural method of carbon sequestration

While reducing greenhouse gas emissions is the most important step the global community can take, the carbon that has been and will be released must also be removed from the atmosphere to limit global warming.

Brilliant Planet is unlocking the power of algae as an affordable method of permanently and quantifiably sequestering carbon at the gigaton scale. The company’s innovative process enables vast quantities of microalgae to grow in open-air pond-based systems on coastal desert land. This is achieved through a natural process that contributes to the health of the oceans and air, without the use of fresh water.
