The urgency of the climate crisis demands innovative solutions and among the most promising is Direct Air Capture ( DAC ), a technology that directly removes carbon dioxide ( CO₂ ) from the atmosphere .

A group of scientists and engineers pioneering DAC came together to form Mission Zero Technologies , a company driven by a vision to transform CO₂ from a pollutant into a valuable resource .
Mission Zero ’ s story began with a shared realisation among its founders Gaël Gobaille-Shaw , Shiladitya Ghosh and Nick Chadwick . These chemists and chemical engineers recognised the potential of DAC to address climate change effectively . This is based on the belief that CO₂ is not merely a harmful gas but a versatile building block that can be used to create a wide array of products , from fuels and building materials to even food and clothing .
