PermaC Deploys Woody Blankets to Halt Arctic Permafrost Thaw
A Canadian startup, PermaC, has tested an insulating blanket made of woody materials and natural fibers on rapidly eroding permafrost in Canada's Northwest Territories. The method aims to prevent further thaw and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the soil. If successful, this approach could offer a new way to directly address permafrost-related emissions amid climate change.
