00:00The world's largest carbon removal plant opens in Iceland.
00:06The facility, which started operating in May, is nicknamed Mammoth and has the capacity
00:11to suck roughly 36,000 tons of carbon from the air each year using a technology known
00:17as direct air capture, or DAC.
00:21Industry analysts say the process works by using chemicals to literally suck the greenhouse
00:25gases from the atmosphere, like a vacuum, and then store it underground.
00:30Climeworks, the Swiss-based startup that owns the Mammoth plant, said it plans to store
00:34the carbon underground where it will be naturally transformed into stone, locking up the gas
00:39permanently.
00:41Mammoth is the company's second facility operating in the country.
00:44In 2021, Climeworks opened a plant named Orca with the capacity to remove 4,000 tons of
00:50carbon a year, which was previously the world's largest operational site.
