What if the key to solving carbon emissions was hidden in plain sight—floating all around us in our oceans? In this episode of Catching Carbon, we sit down with Garrett Boudinot, Founder and CEO of VYCarb, to dive into a new frontier in carbon removal: oceanic carbon capture. Garrett shares how VYCarb’s cutting-edge technology is turning the tide on carbon emissions by extracting CO₂ directly from seawater—offering a scalable, nature-inspired solution that could redefine the future of climate tech. Whether you're a climate professional or just carbon-curious, this episode breaks down the science in a way that’s easy to follow and exciting to imagine. We also explore the hot topic of 45Q tax credits and what they could mean for ocean-based capture—can ocean tech finally claim its seat at the table? Tune in for this conversation on innovation, impact, and the massive potential hiding just beneath the surface.

In this episode of Catching Carbon, hosts Jeff Holyoak and Luke Lana sit down with John May, Managing Director at Hamilton Clark, to break down the critical role of investment in advancing carbon capture technologies. From early-stage funding to commercial-scale project financing, John shares insights into how institutional capital is fueling innovation, the challenges of securing funding for first-of-a-kind projects, and why major banks like Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley aren’t stepping into this space—yet. With access to over 400 institutional investors and billions in potential investment, Hamilton Clark is at the forefront of bridging the gap between groundbreaking carbon capture technologies and the capital needed to scale them. If you're an early-stage startup or an investor looking to enter the carbon capture market, this episode is packed with insider knowledge on securing funding, navigating policy risks, and the evolving financial landscape of sustainability.

In this episode, we sit down with Aniruddha Sharma, CEO of Carbon Clean, to explore how carbon capture is evolving to address the 12 billion tons of CO₂ emissions from hard-to-abate industries. With a technology that has been around for 90 years, the challenge isn’t whether carbon capture works—it’s how to scale it efficiently.

The biggest challenge: Finding space to capture CO₂ at an industrial scale Making capture feasible: How Carbon Clean has reduced capture system size by 10x while increasing efficiency The cost of decarbonization: What it takes to transition sectors like transportation and construction What’s driving adoption? The push for carbon-neutral operations and competitive differentiation The road to scalability: Overcoming energy consumption barriers and unlocking the next phase of global adoption.
