Marketing and Communications Intern

Ebb Carbon | Marketing and Communications Intern

Ebb Carbon is a team of leading scientists, oceanographers, chemists, engineers, communicators and more who have decades of experience developing and scaling solutions to climate change. Together we are working on removing billions of tonnes of excess carbon dioxide already in the air due to human-generated CO2 pollution over the last 200 years.

Ebb’s approach to removing CO2 from the air is unique because we enhance the ocean’s natural ability to capture and store carbon. In the process, we also locally reduce the acidity of seawater. Our electrochemical technology has the potential to be one of the largest scale and lowest cost approaches to removing excess CO2 from the air.
