CLIMATE ROBOTICS
Climate Robotics leverages robots and AI to sequester carbon, fight climate change and improve soils. Its autonomous Pyrobots identify degraded or blighted tracts of land in urban and peri-urban areas and then convert the biomass waste on-site efficiently into biochar – a form of charcoal made from agricultural waste – safely and efficiently on those parcels. When applied to degraded soil, biochar boosts nutrient retention, water retention and helps remediate contaminants while permanently sequestering billions of tons of atmospheric carbon. Climate Robotics has the potential to sequester up to 15 million tonnes of CO2 annually, just by using blighted or degraded urban land – equivalent to taking over 3 million cars off the road.
