The world's largest plant designed to suck carbon dioxide out of the air and turn it into rock has started running. The plant named Orca after the Icelandic word 'orka' meaning 'energy', consists of four units, each made up of two metal boxes that look like shipping containers. Constructed by Switzerland's Climeworks and Iceland's Carbfix, when operating at capacity the plant will draw 4000 tonnes of carbon dioxide out of the air every year. I hope it works.
