Through this collaboration, Karbon-X will neutralize the carbon footprint of the Banff Marathon, ensuring a more sustainable and eco-friendlier race.
The Banff Marathon, known for its breathtaking scenery and challenging courses, attracts participants from around the globe. Recognizing the importance of environmental responsibility, event organizers enlisted the expertise of Brightspot, a sustainability consulting firm, to measure the environmental footprint of the marathon.
Brightspot climate conducted a comprehensive assessment of the event, analyzing factors such as transportation, energy consumption, and waste generation.

Leveraging its extensive portfolio of verified carbon offset projects, Karbon-X used the data collected by Brightspot Climate and provided 956 VERRA carbon credits to offset it. These offsets represent investments in projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gas emissions, such as renewable energy generation or cookstove initiatives in the developing world.

"By offsetting the environmental impact of the event with verified carbon offsets, we are taking proactive steps to protect the pristine beauty of Banff National Park and contribute to global climate action."
The partnership between Karbon-X and the Banff Marathon reflects a growing trend in the event industry towards sustainability and environmental stewardship. As more organizations prioritize eco-friendly practices, carbon offsetting has emerged as a practical and effective strategy for reducing environmental impact and promoting a more sustainable future.
"We are committed to minimizing our environmental footprint and the preservation of Banff National Park," said Paul Regensburg, Event Director of the Banff Marathon.

CIL Announces Breakthrough in Benzene Recovery, Addressing Cost, Environmental, and Supply Challenges for OLED Display Manufacturers12.12.2024 09:00:00 CET | Press release
TEWKSBURY, MA / ACCESSWIRE / December 12, 2024 / Cambridge Isotope Laboratories, Inc. (CIL) has successfully developed and implemented a game-changing benzene-d6 recovery program, addressing major pain points for manufacturers of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays. This innovative service reduces costs, minimizes environmental impact, and conserves scarce deuterium supplies. OLED display producers rely heavily on deuterated benzene (benzene-d6) as a critical starting material in their synthesis processes. However, this results in significant quantities of depleted benzene-d6, which is no longer usable but still retains considerable deuterium value. The disposal of such depleted material poses environmental challenges and substantial expenses. CIL's benzene-recovery program offers a transformative solution. Customers can now return their depleted benzene-d6 to CIL, where it undergoes a proprietary re-enrichment process to restore it to virgin material quality. This service is
