Take on a YouTube video from AirMiners, originally posted 2026-05-01. Watch the source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEWnepySw_k AirMiners: What’s Hot in Carbon Dioxide Removal, April 2026 This is the April 2026 edition of AirMiners’ monthly “what’s hot” rundown, hosted by Tito Jankowski. It’s a roughly 10-minute state-of-the-market intro followed by breakout discussions. The framing is blunt: investors are pulling back, government funding is shaky, and Microsoft — the buyer that effectively underwrote the last two years of offtakes — has gone quiet. Tito’s pitch is to stop speculating and look at what’s actually closing. ...

Patritzia, CSI’s chief standard officer, presents the headline change: a new upper persistence class — “C-Sink 1000+” — requiring 90% geologically persistent carbon, validated by either hydropyrolysis (HyPy) or random reflectance analysis.

Take on a YouTube video from Nature Tech Collective, originally posted 2026-05-01. Watch the source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qpq2v2HRhXw Watch on YouTube This is a Nature Tech Collective webinar with Dr. Will Burt, VP Science & Product at Planetary, walking through ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) as Planetary practices it — adding a mineral antacid to seawater to neutralize dissolved CO₂ and shift the air-sea equilibrium toward more uptake. The framing is 101-level by Burt’s own admission, pitched at an audience he assumed would be mixed. The substantive claim is the familiar one: OAE sits in the favorable corner of the NOAA scalability-vs-cost matrix, and Planetary is among the further-along operators trying to prove it at sea. ...
