This morning I had the privilege of participating in an expert panel on carbon management at the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment in beautiful St. John's. I spoke to environment ministers from the provinces and federal government about the opportunity for Canada to lead the world in the emerging carbon removal industry - if only we can move with speed! There are three things governments can do today to accelerate progress: 1. Speed up regulatory frameworks for storage across the country 2. Enable climate finance mechanisms for carbon removal projects (e.g., flow-through shares, green bonds) 3. Procure CDR credits at scale to address government emission targets It was so great to share Deep Sky's perspective alongside other incredible panelists Dawn Carr, Kieran Hanley, Lesley James , Beth (Hardy) Valiaho, and Claude Letourneau, ICD.D

North America is being slammed with heat waves coast to coast. And, they're just going to worsen. An analysis from Deep Sky Research found that: - The probability of an extreme heat wave in N. America has shot up 20X - Extreme heat waves that used to occur once every 100 years will now happen every 5 As the frequency and severity of heat waves increase, critical thresholds will be breached, causing non-linear impacts on crop production, food prices, and many other widespread economic impacts. The consequences will be grave. This is our new normal unless we take action to reverse climate change. Real our full heat wave report: https://lnkd.in/dGnmcggP

🔥 Big thanks to ABC News for covering our Extreme Wildfire Report today! Our report from Climate Data Scientist Max Dugan-Knight found that the frequency and severity of wildfires has grown by 20X, meaning the likelihood of a catastrophic wildfire that used to happen once every 100 years will now happen every five. And as ABC's Ginger Zee points out, it's mostly caused by humans. At Deep Sky Research, we let data tell the climate change story for us. Stay tuned for more impactful reports coming soon.

Lundi dernier, nous avons accueilli plus de 80 membres de la communauté de Bécancour, au Québec, lors d'une séance de portes ouvertes, pour discuter de notre étude de pré-faisabilité qui pourrait mener à un projet de stockage de carbone. Nous avons écouté les citoyens, expliqué le fonctionnement de l'étude et présenté la carte de la zone cible de l'étude. La mairesse de Bécancour, Lucie Allard, le maire de Trois-Rivières, Jean Lamarche, le directeur général du Conseil des Abénakis de Wôlinak, Jean W. Boucher, le président-directeur général du parc industriel de Bécancour, Donald Olivier, le président-directeur général de la Vallée de la Transition Énergétique (VTE), Alain Lemieux. Des représentants des bureaux des députés Donald Martel et Louis Plamondon étaient également présents. Pour en savoir plus sur l'événement, lisez Le Nouvelliste : https://lnkd.in/e2MvygZz

Time for field work! Our Head of Carbon Mineralization, Catalina Sánchez-Roa, PhD, was up in Chibougamau this week, the largest town in Nord-du-Québec, central Quebec, Canada. There, she analyzed core samples for testing, from a variety of rock types to better understand the mineralization potential of CO2. Why Chibougamau? It has been identified as an ideal location to test carbon mineralization. The core rock samples will be used for reactivity and permeability analysis alongside our partner Carbfix, helping us finesse our process for carbon mineralization before deploying it at scale.

According to findings from Deep Sky, a Canadian carbon removal project developer, the frequency of extreme fire risk in the US has surged by 20 times.

Our data arm, Deep Sky Research, uses a risk-first approach to make sense of climate data. This novel approach yields extreme weather predictions, since "extreme" is our new reality. We cannot prepare if we aren't informed. Deep Sky Research found that maximum fire risk has grown approximately 15X across North America, while the frequency has grown 20X. And, it's accelerating.

Honored to be included in this story about marine carbon dioxide removal in The Walrus . By removing CO2 from the atmosphere and oceans, we can combat climate change.
