An XPrize competition funded by Tesla CEO Elon Musk just awarded teams of students $5 million to develop their ideas for carbon removal systems — and it still has another $95 million to give away.

The challenge: Between our cars, factories, and everything else, humans are pumping about 43 billion tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every year.

To combat climate change, we not only need to cut that figure way down, we also need to capture and store a lot of the CO2 that’s already out there.

Quite the inspirational week this one with the complete set of JWST First Images. Loads of Starship and Starbase news. Last week I mentioned that it was fire time for Starbase, and…WOW… I was not wrong there. SpaceX’s Starship Booster 7 has gone for repair after explosion. Falcon 9 launches for both Starlink and finally CRS-25. We also had the very first launch of Vega C. Rocket Lab firing off another Electron, and more. So enough of this intro. Let’s crack on with it!

Circa 2020


In 2016, Elon Musk’s younger brother, Kimbal Musk co-founded Brooklyn-NY-based vertical-farming operation Square Roots as part of a broader quest to grow fresh, local produce close to population centres and empower young people to participate in the sustainable urban farming trend. Over four years, Square Roots has grown more than 120 varieties of crop, including salad greens, vegetables and strawberries.

In February 2020, Musk told CNN Business the company plans to open a Square Roots ‘Super Farm’, with 25 climate-controlled shipping containers, cold storage facilities, biosecurity infrastructure and the technology required to operate a commercial-scale vertical farm, in less than three months.

“A lot of smart money and capital is entering the space,” Square Roots CEO Tobias Peggs told CNN Business. “The quality of food that can now be produced in these indoor systems is at least on par with the best organic field grown food you can buy.”
