Ocean Air Capture (OAC) is a class of negative emissions technologies that use the ocean’s natural chemical properties to remove and permanently store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Our oceans have absorbed 90% of the heat generated by climate change and ¼ of the excess CO2. While buffering us from the most disastrous effects of climate change for the moment, this is wreaking havoc on ocean ecosystems and the people that rely on them due to increasing ocean acidity and temperature.
