Feeling thankful for the generosity of Carbon180’s supporters, who make our work possible — in a field that seemed impossible just a few years ago. With Giving Tuesday coming next week, please consider giving to Carbon180. We have big plans for 2025 ➡️ bit.ly/4fKGmCG

Tomorrow is a big day for our fundraising efforts. We couldn’t build the policy + field needed for a carbon-removing future without the generosity of individual donors 🤗 We'd be honored to have your support on #GivingTuesday ⬇️

It’s giving … Tuesday ✨ 2024 brought DAC hubs awards, the first government purchases of CDR, and a roster of bipartisan bills. We're ready to take it even farther in 2025, with your support: bit.ly/4fKGmCG
