“Imagine if we could pull billions of tonnes of carbon dioxide directly from the air and transform it into sustainable fuels that power the world and slow climate change,” says Dr Sam Wenger, University of Sydney alumnus, Founder and CEO of Dac Labs.
“Imagine if we could pull billions of tonnes of carbon dioxide directly from the air and transform it into sustainable fuels that power the world and slow climate change,” says Dr Sam Wenger, University of Sydney alumnus, Founder and CEO of Dac Labs.
