After two decades leading this company that I founded & love so much, I am stepping away from day-to-day leadership at #CarbonCure but will keep supporting its mission on our Board. And I have full confidence that CarbonCure will grow even stronger under Interim CEO Kristal Kaye.
Today, #CarbonCure named Kristal Kaye as Interim CEO. This comes as @robniven transitions from the CEO role to serving via our Board. Rob founded the company in 2012 and leaves a legacy of 600,000 metric tons of CO2 savings to date! See our news release: bit.ly/4jxfwzi

#Concrete is essential—but also carbon-intensive. We must rethink and reduce cement. At CarbonCure, we inject CO₂ into concrete where it’s permanently stored & emissions are cut. Learn more @ The Zero Planet: bit.ly/4mmQOUX Accelerate our scale: bit.ly/3UZUZuA

Concrete is one of the toughest sectors to decarbonize—but companies like @CarbonCure and Pan-United are showing it’s possible. @BillGates and Rodi Guidero had a chance to see the tech in action in Singapore: captured CO2, injected into concrete, cutting emissions at scale.

With all hands on deck & all the tools in our toolbox, #CarbonRemoval collaboration can drive climate impact this decade. Congrats to all of the finalists! Knowing firsthand the power of an #XPRIZE grand prize win, very excited to see who comes out on top and what comes next.
What if we could take CO2 out of the air to stabilize our climate? #XPRIZECarbonRemoval finalists @Airhive2050, @HeirloomCarbon, @OctaviaCarbon, @CellaMinerals, Project Hajar, and @SkyrenuTech are developing solutions that can do exactly that. Learn more: bit.ly/42iyF1e

Inject CO₂ into concrete? Permanent. Verified. Our latest study shows mineralization cuts cement, cuts #EmbodiedCarbon & stores captured CO₂ for centuries—no trade-offs. #CarbonCure is proud to deliver innovation with integrity and impact. Read: bit.ly/3QZh6y8
