+EARTH+ is revolutionizing land restoration and carbon capture by harnessing the power of nature. The startup employs innovative, nature-based solutions to clean polluted soils and sequester carbon, utilizing fast-growing plants that require minimal water and no pesticides. Their unique methodology includes soil analysis, plant cultivation, and advanced monitoring technology, ensuring transparency and real-time reporting on environmental impact.
The mission of +EARTH+is to create the largest Soil & CO2 cleanup initiative, promoting a sustainable future for our planet. They aim to restore degraded lands while providing economic benefits through the production of bio-based construction materials, effectively turning pollution into opportunity.
By addressing soil pollution and carbon emissions, +EARTH+ tackles critical global challenges, including food security and climate change. Their approach not only improves soil health but also enhances biodiversity and agricultural yields.
In contributing to the Circular Economy, +EARTH+ transforms waste into valuable resources, creating circular bio-based materials that store carbon long-term. Their innovative solutions help reduce reliance on traditional, resource-intensive materials, promoting sustainability in construction and agriculture.
+EARTH+ aims to mitigate the 8% of global CO2 emissions coming from cement production, by upcycling waste concrete into drop-in substitutes to aggregate, sand, and cement. The vision is to produce circular concrete without primary raw materials.
