We’ve signed an agreement with AMP Sortation to enable 200,000 tons of CO2 removal by 2030 and explore how their approach mitigates methane, a superpollutant that is 80 times more potent than CO2 in the near-term.

AMP is developing AI-powered sortation technology to recover organic material from municipal solid waste facilities. Rather than allowing waste to decompose in landfills and release carbon and methane into the atmosphere, AMP will convert it into biochar, a stable material that can keep the carbon locked away for hundreds of years.

With our support, AMP and the Southeastern Public Service Authority of Virginia plan to deploy this climate solution at the largest recycling project in the U.S.. The initiative aims to reduce waste and improve local air quality for surrounding communities.

This partnership builds on our ongoing efforts to transform waste into a powerful lever for removing carbon and targeting methane.

AMP Sortation diverts waste from landfills and removes carbon.
