Brian Kahn of Bloomberg reports on a direct air capture plant going live in Louisiana.
- Heirloom Carbon has announced plans to build a direct air capture (DAC) facility near Shreveport, Louisiana.

- The plant will be near another one of Heirloom’s plant DAC facility which was funded by the Department of Energy
