What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Proceed with caution

Why
Strongest commercial validation in marine CDR (Microsoft, Google, Saudi Water Authority) plus live operations, but verified delivery is tiny vs. contracted volumes and the MRV + acidification-mitigation science carries documented, peer-reviewed limitations.
Next
Track Project Macoma's verified delivered tonnes against its <=1,000t pilot target and whether Isometric-verified credits are issued at the promised quality before treating the 350kt Microsoft / 3.5kt Google offtakes as bankable.
