UNDO is tackling the greatest challenge of our time: climate change. We are a fast-growing for-profit business that is already one of the biggest carbon removal companies in the world. But this is only the start - we have ambitious plans aligned with great funding, excellent people and an inclusive team.
UNDO has recently been named one of four global winners of the $100M XPRIZE Carbon Removal competition, further giving recognition and credibility to enhanced rock weathering (ERW) as a carbon removal pathway, and UNDO as a scientific world leader in this field.
In addition to our successful ERW operations, we’re now leveraging our expertise and underlying technology to deliver a platform that will enable a global network of project developers to scale ERW to the gigaton level - essential in the fight against climate change.
