We live, and have always lived, in a linear economy that produces immense amounts of CO2 and solid waste. This unsustainable model jeopardizes the ability of future generations to access the resources necessary for high-quality living. But we have an opportunity to reimagine waste as a valuable resource to create a sustainable world for the first time in human history.
While nature alone might not suffice to address all of the waste we've generated, engineered solutions that mimic and speed up organic or inorganic natural processes can play a crucial role. For instance, mineralization—a natural process that converts carbon dioxide into mineral carbonates over hundreds of years—can be replicated by technology companies in minutes. This process mimics what we see in nature to reduce atmospheric carbon emissions.
