The Carbon XPRIZE: transforming how we think about CO2 in the fight against climate change

Jan 30, 2020

What if you could turn man-made CO2 from something that causes global warming into useful products like concrete, bioplastics or vodka? 

XPRIZE Executive Director Marcius Extavour discusses the $20 million NRG COSIA Carbon XPRIZE: an international competition supported by power company NRG and Canada's Oil Sands Innovation Alliance.
