Phononic
The most hazardous elements in traditional refrigeration and cooling technology are refrigerants – chemical compounds used as the heat carrier within systems. When a refrigerant is released, the gas remains trapped in the atmosphere and absorbs heat, warming the earth and acting as a CO2 multiplier in the atmosphere. In fact, one kilogram of the highly-toxic refrigerant R410a has the same greenhouse impact as two tons of carbon dioxide, which is the equivalent of running your car for six months. Phononic’s solid state cooling, refrigeration and HVAC innovation uses just water mixed with naturally available CO2, with a GWP of just 1 or less, delivering the lowest GWP rating in the industry.

Newlight Technologies
Newlight was founded in 2003 with a question: why can't we use greenhouse gas emissions as a resource to make materials? After 10 years of research and development, Newlight has developed a carbon capture technology that pulls carbon out of greenhouse gas and uses that carbon to produce a bioplastic material called AirCarbon™: a naturally-occurring material that can match the performance of oil-based plastics and out-compete on price.
