About Us
At Charm Industrial, we're on a mission to return the atmosphere to 280 ppm CO2. Our innovative approach involves converting excess inedible biomass into carbon-rich bio-oil and injecting it into underground storage for permanent carbon removal. This path allows us to create fossil-free iron at scale.
We began our carbon removal journey in 2020 with initial purchases from customers like Stripe, Shopify & Microsoft. Since then, we've grown to thousands of tons of carbon removal , over a hundred employees, and now have three locations in San Francisco, Colorado, and Kansas. We're looking for a talented Geostrategy Specialist to join our team in 2024 as we strive to become one of the first companies to put 10,000 tons of carbon back underground.
We value psychological safety and collaboration within our team of ambitious, creative, and forward-thinking individuals. We take calculated risks and learn from our mistakes. Our diverse backgrounds and perspectives shape our work, and we encourage you to read our company values .
Come help us reverse climate change. Gigatons or bust
