Inspired by nature and recognizing the impact of travel on our climate, Blumar DMC has joined Tomorrow’s Air, acknowledging the critical importance of carbon removal in restoring climate balance. Scientists estimate that more than 10 gigatons of carbon dioxide will need to be removed annually by 2050, while current removal capacity remains below one gigaton per year. Blumar is proud to be part of Tomorrow’s Air and, beginning in June 2024, will donate a percentage of profits from all clients to help expand global support for carbon removal initiatives.

Tomorrow’s Air: Innovation in Climate and Travel

Tomorrow’s Air is a travel collective that inspires and engages travelers and travel companies to scale climate innovation. Its initiatives include sustainable aviation fuel and advanced carbon removal technologies that rapidly capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it permanently.

While travel generates significant economic benefits and helps fund wildlife and nature conservation efforts, the industry is also responsible for at least eight percent of global carbon dioxide emissions. This reality motivated Blumar to join forces with Tomorrow’s Air, calling on the global travel community to take meaningful action.

How It Works

Tomorrow’s Air supports a portfolio of pioneering carbon removal innovators selected for their technological and hybrid nature-based solutions. These companies include Climeworks, Pacific Biochar, and Eion. Contributions from travelers and travel companies fund climate-conscious travel education and directly finance carbon removal through these trusted partners.

About Climeworks

Climeworks, headquartered in Iceland, specializes in direct air capture technology. Carbon collectors draw ambient air into the system using a fan. The carbon dioxide binds to a specialized filter inside the collector. Once the filter becomes saturated, the collector is sealed and heated, releasing highly concentrated carbon dioxide.

The captured carbon dioxide is then dissolved in water, similar to the carbonation process used to make sparkling water. This carbonated water is injected deep underground into basalt rock formations in Iceland. The basalt releases minerals that react with the dissolved carbon dioxide, transforming it into stone. This process ensures safe and permanent removal, as the mineralized carbon cannot leak back into the atmosphere. The entire operation is powered by geothermal energy.

About Pacific Biochar

Pacific Biochar removes and stores carbon dioxide by stabilizing natural decomposition processes in organic matter and securing carbon safely within the soil. The resulting biochar is applied to agricultural soils, where it enhances overall soil health by retaining plant nutrients in the topsoil.

Biochar also supports increased crop productivity and improves water retention, helping conserve water used in agriculture. By strengthening soil structure and fertility, Pacific Biochar contributes to both climate mitigation and sustainable farming practices.

About Eion

Eion’s innovative process accelerates the natural chemical weathering of rocks and minerals, a process that captures and stores carbon dioxide over time. The company applies crushed silicate rock, specifically olivine, to agricultural soils. Through natural soil moisture and acidity, the rock dissolves, removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

The resulting bicarbonate ions gradually make their way to the ocean, where they enhance ocean alkalinity and remain stored on the ocean floor for up to 500,000 years. This approach provides a durable and scientifically grounded pathway for long-term carbon storage.

Blumar Travelers: A Vital Part of the Solution

As a global community, the travel industry holds immense potential to support the transition toward sustainability. Millions of travelers, alongside countless travel companies worldwide, form a powerful collective capable of embracing climate-conscious travel and supporting innovative carbon removal solutions that complement the natural absorption capacity of forests, oceans, and soils.

Through their stories, perspectives, and direct contributions to permanent carbon removal, Blumar DMC travelers are helping build the carbon removal movement and providing essential funding for pioneering climate solutions.

We Share the Same Air

Carbon dioxide is evenly mixed throughout the atmosphere. Emissions generated in one part of the world blend with emissions from other regions. When atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations are reduced, regardless of where the reduction occurs, the entire planet benefits. Every person protected by our shared atmosphere gains from these collective efforts.

Let us unite to restore our climate.

Blumar’s partnership with Tomorrow’s Air marks a meaningful step toward more sustainable, climate-conscious travel. By supporting carbon removal innovators such as Climeworks, Pacific Biochar, and Eion, we are committed to reducing the environmental impact of travel. Join us on this journey and be part of the solution. Together, we can restore our climate and secure a more sustainable future for generations to come.

1. What is Tomorrow’s Air?

Tomorrow’s Air is a global travel collective that inspires travelers and travel companies to support climate innovation. It focuses on scaling solutions such as sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and permanent carbon removal technologies to help address climate change.

2. Why did Blumar DMC join Tomorrow’s Air?

Blumar DMC joined Tomorrow’s Air to help reduce the environmental impact of travel and support the development of permanent carbon removal technologies. The partnership reflects Blumar's commitment to more sustainable and climate-conscious tourism.

3. When did Blumar begin supporting Tomorrow’s Air?

Beginning in June 2024, Blumar DMC committed to donating a percentage of profits from all clients to support Tomorrow’s Air and its carbon removal initiatives.

4. What is carbon removal?

Carbon removal is the process of extracting carbon dioxide (CO₂) directly from the atmosphere and storing it permanently. It complements efforts to reduce emissions and is considered essential for achieving global climate goals.

5. Why is carbon removal important?

According to climate scientists, the world will need to remove more than 10 gigatons of CO₂ annually by 2050. Current removal capacity is still below one gigaton per year, making investment in innovative technologies increasingly important.

6. How does Tomorrow’s Air support climate action?

Tomorrow’s Air directs funding toward carefully selected carbon removal companies and climate education initiatives. Contributions from travelers and travel businesses help accelerate the development and deployment of proven climate solutions.

7. Which carbon removal companies does Tomorrow’s Air support?
