Puro.earth

Founded in 2019, Puro.earth has established the first standard and registry for verifying and certifying long-term carbon removal from the atmosphere. The company issues CO2 Removal Certificates (CORCs), which are tradable digital assets representing one metric tonne of removed CO2. Its primary business is operating a B2B marketplace that connects suppliers of verified carbon removal with corporations seeking to neutralize their residual emissions and meet climate targets. In June 2021, Nasdaq, Inc. acquired a majority stake in Puro.earth, aiming to scale the carbon removal ecosystem globally.
