Michelle Yu, Supercritical CEO, on Microsoft's 1M-Ton Biochar Deal
Michelle Yu, co-founder and CEO of carbon removal marketplace Supercritical, walks through facilitating a one-million-ton biochar offtake between US project Life Raft and Microsoft, the largest for a US biochar project. She explains residual emissions, pyrolysis, and why hyperscalers' data center buildouts make net zero targets harder, then shares her path from selling Songkick to climate after the 2018 IPCC report, with LocalGlobe and Lightspeed backing the company.
