Description

Big tech companies like Microsoft and Google are investing heavily in high-quality carbon removal credits, driving up their price fourfold. This surge in demand is fueled by the growth of AI and data centers, which increase emissions. Despite the high cost, these credits are crucial for slowing global warming. However, the supply cant keep up, leading companies to secure future credits through long-term agreements. Pure Data Centres Group is even building the UKs largest biochar project to ensure a steady supply.
