Restoration of CO₂ balance
No Emission Avoidance
If you use greenSand, emissions are not avoided. They are also not increased: the road or path is still constructed.
No Emission Reduction
Using greenSand does not mean a reduction in CO₂ emissions.
Mining and transportation produce the same amount of emissions as other rocks. Fortunately, these industries are working hard on more sustainable solutions. This benefits us all.
But CO₂ Removal|
By applying greenSand products, the olivine-rich rock absorbs CO₂ from rainwater or groundwater, which is then slowly, but surely and permanently captured.
Your options
At the moment we know of three types of CO₂ clean-up projects. Choose below the type of project that appeals to you and with which you want to contribute.
Non-Profit Projects
To promote our climate solution to a wider audience, we regularly donate our products to non-profit organizations.
By purchasing a CO₂ clean-up certificate, you support our goal of finding as much support as possible for CO₂ removal and thus restoring balance to the Earth's CO₂ cycle.
Precursors projects
To advance our climate solution, awareness is important. Every now and then we offer a product below our cost price to serve as an example for more projects. In order to be able to pay for this, we ask them to waive the so-called voluntary CO₂ rights. We offer these in the form of CO₂ clean-up certificates.
By doing so, you not only help yourself, but you also become part of the climate solution.
Research projects
Although already a lot is known about rock weathering with olivine, there are always things we don't know yet. We regularly receive requests from schools and universities and research agencies. For their pilot and field research into, for example, the speed of sequestration, the conditions (temperature, drought, soil conditions, planting) and applications. We are happy to make our products available for this purpose.
We currently have no ongoing projects. We expect to start a new research project in January.
