    Carbon Gap has launched a funding tracker for CDR in Europe which is mighty helpful given it is hard to find pockets of funding for this important innovation. In this 4th episode of The Giga Ten Sebastian Manhart and I discuss this as well as the need to grow CDR companies post pilot. The rest of the conversation covers policies that emerged recently and we end wondering about the new CDR project in Wyoming, Spiritus, that just received $30 million.
