The US is launching the largest ever carbon-removal initiative in the world.

Once built, facilities in Texas and Louisiana will suck carbon dioxide pollution from the air.

Removing greenhouse gases from the atmosphere is crucial to reversing the effects of climate change.

The Biden Administration is investing up to $1.2 billion for companies to suck greenhouse gases out of the air — the biggest investment in carbon removal in history, the US Department of Energy announced in a press release on Friday.

The DOE said that the initiative will begin with two large-scale carbon removal facilities in Texas and Louisiana, before eventually expanding to more sites across the US.
