Microsoft inks massive carbon removal deal powered by a paper mill
Microsoft it is buying 3.7 million metric tons of carbon removal credits from CO280, a project developer that works with pulp and paper mills.
Microsoft announced on Friday that it is buying 3.7 million metric tons of carbon removal credits from CO280, a project developer that works with pulp and paper mills. The capture technology is based on the widely used amine process, and it will be attached to a large paper mill’s recovery boiler, which helps recycle various chemicals for reuse.
