How do you set a high bar in carbon removal? For Cowboy Clean Fuels, it starts with being your own toughest critic. “We need to convince ourselves before we can convince anyone else.” More in Removed & Proved: absoluteclimate.com/blog-posts/acc…

San Francisco Climate Week is a good moment to step back from the day-to-day and actually compare notes with others working in this space. Our CEO & Co-Founder, @PeterMinor, will be speaking on two panels, one on carbon removal standards and another on powering AI with low-carbon infrastructure. We’re excited to be part of the dialogue and to learn from others driving meaningful progress in climate!

Today, Absolute Climate, Cowboy Clean Fuels, and @EvidentGlobal announced a partnership to bring a new class of carbon removal credits to market. As projects grow more complex, the industry needs clearer, more consistent ways to measure and verify impact. Learn more here: globenewswire.com/news-release/2…

Not all reversal risks behave the same way. We shouldn’t treat them like they do. Read how Absolute Climate is approaching it: linkedin.com/pulse/implemen…

We’re hiring a Head of Science @absclimate 👩🏾‍🔬 If you’ve been frustrated by how inconsistent and hard-to-compare carbon removal claims are, this role is for you! jobs.absoluteclimate.com

ACS v2.1 clarifies several aspects of how the framework is applied as more projects, producers, and buyers begin using it in practice. As the field expands, these kinds of accounting rules will increasingly shape how mitigation markets operate.

We’ve released ACS v2.1, the latest update to the Absolute Carbon Standard. As carbon mitigation markets grow, the rules behind mitigation claims are becoming just as important as the technologies themselves. ACS was designed to help define those rules.

Carbon removal is moving beyond early curiosity and into real investment. That was a clear takeaway from #CarbonRemovalDay in Ottawa last week, where we hosted “Setting the Standard,” a breakfast with leaders from industry and government on building national standards for CDR. The launch of the Advance Carbon Removal Coalition, with a $100M commitment and early participation from the Government of Canada, sends a strong signal that Canada is open for carbon removal business. It’s the kind of signal that could set the tone for other nations looking to lead in carbon removal.

New Removed & Proved: @NoahMcQueen13 From scaling DAC to shaping policy, Noah McQueen shares why integrity must come first, how to bridge the pilot-to-infrastructure gap, and why carbon removal should be treated as climate risk management. Check it out here: absoluteclimate.com/blog-posts/des…

Emissions are often not reduced because of market structure, not technical limits. Procurement. Geography. Financing. We’re expanding Absolute Climate’s certification framework to include Environmental Attribute Certificates for low-carbon products. Reductions and removals should reinforce each other, not compete.

Absolute Climate has joined the @NEP_Brussels, a network driving policy, markets, and responsible deployment for negative emissions. We’re bringing our standards and verification expertise to make carbon removal measurable, verifiable, and ready to scale. Let’s get to work.

Today we launched something new at Absolute Climate. We’re rolling out a certification pathway for low-carbon products like concrete, steel, and SAF using Environmental Attribute Certificates. Built on facility-level data. Rigorous LCA. Registry tracking. No double counting. Details 👇

✨ This Wednesday, join us to learn how biochar and mineralization can draw down and store carbon while improving soil health and forest resilience. Register: loom.ly/2D1Umgk

Scaling high quality carbon removal isn’t just about technology, it’s about markets that work. A recent piece from the @WorldResources on California’s carbon removal plans highlights this challenge. The state has policy, innovation, and momentum, but public action is needed to turn ambition into deployable solutions. What happens next will show what is possible for other states and nations pursuing net-zero. Full piece comments.

A slower year for carbon removal doesn’t mean the industry is stuck. As a @heatmap_news piece shows, demand is real but still concentrated among a few early buyers. What unlocks broader participation is not hype or volume alone. It’s trust, built through clear standards, consistent measurement, and credible claims. That’s where the work needs to focus next.
