Burning Boats
Burning boats is not something that an environmentalist would normally recommend - it is wasteful and generates greenhouse gases - but do not worry because the boats that I have burnt are metaphorical and not real.
I have resigned from my role as a management consultant at Corven (www.corven.com) and am now working full-time on Cquestrate. I have sufficient funding to take me through until the end of the year, by which point it should be clearer what the prospects for this process are.
The last few days have seen some really interesting leads emerging, especially around the area of growing algae. The waste products from the calcination of the limestone are low grade heat and carbon dioxide, which are two things that algae need, so the process has strong synergies with improving the efficiency of algaculture. Watch this space for more updates.
