The brief
- Deployed across 20,000+ hectares with 100,000+ tonnes CO2 removed, backed by $58.2M from Google, Doerr, Sandberg and Valor.
- Sept 2026: Google announced Brazil rice project covering 200,000+ hectares with methane reduction and carbon removal.
- Google buys 1M tonnes of carbon removal by 2040, largest CDR purchase. Also offtakes with Microsoft and Frontier.
Technical approach
Matching rocks to soils
Basalt in Brazil, olivine in U.S., matched to local soil chemistry. Minerals weather naturally over decades, sequestering CO2 permanently.
Science-backed monitoring
Terradot employs over 20 PhDs and operates a Sentinel Site in Brazil with comprehensive subsurface monitoring to verify carbon removal and optimize deployments.
Global logistics
Terradot sources rock locally, grinds it fine, and applies it at scale through partnerships with agricultural service providers.
Permanent removal
Unlike carbon capture that requires ongoing storage, ERW converts CO2 into stable minerals in soil. The carbon remains locked for millions of years.
