Unlocking Gigatonne Potential: Brazil and the World’s First Certified Enhanced Rock Weathering Carbon Removal Credits

Sustainable Ventures – The View Address: County Hall, Belvedere Rd, London SE1 7PB, United Kingdom

About this Event

This event, hosted by InPlanet, will explore how Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW) is emerging as one of the most scalable and science-backed carbon removal solutions, rooted in tropical agriculture.

With Brazil’s ideal conditions, including abundant basalt, high rainfall, and a progressive climate policy landscape, InPlanet is leading the way in deploying ERW at scale. The event will highlight our organization’s groundbreaking work issuing the world’s first independently certified ERW carbon credits in January 2025 and will showcase how the technology benefits both the climate and farmers, improving soil health, increasing yields, and reducing reliance on chemical fertilizers.

Attendees will hear from leading voices in ERW science, MRV and certification, regenerative agriculture, and carbon markets. The agenda will include technical insights, case studies from InPlanet’s operations, and panel discussions.

Headline Speakers:
– Felix Harteneck, Co‑Founder & CEO, InPlanet
– Dr. Matthew Clarkson, Head of Carbon, InPlanet
– Additional expert voices (ERW science, certification, policy) to be confirmed

Objectives & Outcomes:
– Showcase the agricultural and carbon-removal co-benefits of ERW
– Demonstrate scientific and certification readiness for high-integrity ERW deployment
– Drive adoption of ERW as a scalable climate solution rooted in soil health and rural resilience

InPlanet

InPlanet is a climate-tech company based in Brazil and Germany, pioneering the use of Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW) to remove atmospheric CO₂ while regenerating tropical soils. By spreading finely ground silicate rock on farmland, InPlanet accelerates a natural carbon capture process that also improves soil fertility and reduces the need for chemical fertilizers. In January 2025, InPlanet issued the world’s first independently certified ERW carbon removal credits, marking a major milestone in the science-backed, scalable deployment of carbon solutions.
