Deals With Microsoft, Shopify and Stripe Fail to Keep Carbon Removal Startup Alive
Running Tide, a carbon removal startup that signed 25 customers including Microsoft, Shopify and Stripe, is shutting down after failing to secure more financial backing.
The announcement by CEO Martin Odlin in a June 14 post on LinkedIn came just three months after Running Tide touted a successful trial that sequestered 21,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide in biomass sunk deep in the Icelandic ocean. Its early customers received offset credits for that work.
