Warren Buffett didn’t plan to back climate action, the markets did it for him Warren Buffett has long been seen as the epitome of pragmatic capitalism – measured, disciplined, and unimpressed by fads and ideologies. So when the global investment community leaned into climate action and ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) in the past decade, Buffett stood apart. Not defiantly, but dispassionately. In his 60 annual letters to shareholders since 1965, there are only 5 mentions of climate chang

India braces for its hottest summer yet — heatwaves surge, risks rise. It’s going to be a hot summer. Hotter than anything we’ve experienced before. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) forecast: “Above-normal maximum temperatures are likely in most parts of the country.” This is a cause for alarm. Buried in the Numbers Last year, official reports from the Health Ministry indicated that between March 1 and June 18, there were 110 deaths attributed to heatstroke. However, other sources

Carbon Removal Is Where EV Tech Was 20 Years Ago — And That’s Exactly Why We Must Act Now. It’s easy to be cynical about carbon dioxide removal today. The numbers seem too small. The science & tech feels too new. The impact isn’t yet visible at planetary scale. (image source: From a bloomberg article) But here’s the thing: Everything transformative once looked implausible and minuscule. Learning from EV tech In the early 2000s, electric vehicles were a punchline. In 2015, the Organizat

How a humble rock begins its journey to fight climate change — one dusty road at a time. When we think of climate action, we often picture solar panels, wind turbines, or electric cars. But at Alt Carbon, we work with something more ancient. More grounded. A rock. Basalt. Mars has a lot of basalt too Many Martian rocks are volcanic and basaltic, giving insight into the planet’s fiery past. A dark volcanic stone — often overlooked — yet quietly powerful. When crushed and spread

Turning Dust into Climate Action — How Crushed Rocks Can Cool the Planet. We Have to Fight Climate Change. Different companies are adopting a range of strategies to fight carbon emissions — the single biggest cause of a hotter, warmer planet. One of those pathways is enhanced rock weathering. Imagine if rock dust could pull carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere and help cool the planet. This is Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW). But before we understand ERW, let’s talk about natural rock
