Did you know that there is a company near Reykjavik, Iceland, that has a facility can capture 4,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide every year?

The company is Climeworks, founded in May of 2017. The company’s plant captures carbon out of the air, then water is mixed with the carbon dioxide, pumped into the earth, and it turns to rock. Unfortunately for investors, it is privately held so you can’t invest in it yet.

However, there are several publicly traded stocks involved in the business of capturing carbon.
