Fermata Energy aims to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles and renewable energy by turning stationary EVs into a source of power for the grid … and cash for their owners. See the story in GreenBiz.
Do you work for a Badass?
Dr. Jennifer Holmgren, CEO of LanzaTech had a great week. She announced that her company entered into a SPAC deal and she was named a Badass by GreenBiz. We had two clients with stories in The Wall Street Journal this week talking about vehicle-to-everything technology with Fermata Energy, and the SPAC deal and turning pollution into products with LanzaTech. Some of the best stories are those that are told about you by someone else. Many partners relish their work with our clients and helped share their stories. I hope you enjoy them below.

Global Media Attention For Technology That Will Change Manufacturing
North Coast Strategies is an independent public relations consultancy that secures global media attention for its clients each week. From Mardi Gras and Detroit oldest black-owned restaurants, to a collaboration between Northwestern University, LanzaTech and the Oak Ridge Laboratory, check out the media attention we secured for our clients in just one week.
Closing the Carbon Cycle and Creating a Pathway to Net-Zero
What if you could take today's plastic or acrylics and create them using pollution and lock carbon up before it escapes into our atmosphere? In the March issue of Nature Biotechnology, (and online today), a team of scientists from LanzaTech, Northwestern University, and the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Lab reveal their results and methods from a pilot-scale demonstration and life cycle analysis that they can now manufacture glass for windows or headlights, plastics, even nail polish remover and thousands of other products, all from pollution. (See story, here.) This carbon negative platform saves >160% GHG emissions, playing a critical role in helping the U.S. reach a net-zero emissions economy. The results from this collaboration will change how companies can manufacture products.
Media Coverage From The Past Week
Global media for our clients and the impact they make around the world
This week, we announced the 2022 schedule for the Guild of Artists & Artisans in Michigan and Ohio. It is great to be able to make announcements about major events, and these are always outside. We also announced the largest sustainable aviation fuel plant in North America will be built outside of Chicago between LanzaJet and Marquis Sustainable Aviation Fuel that resulted in coverage in North America and Europe in mainstream media, such as Crain’s Chicago Business and trade publications such as Aviation International News and Biofuels Digest. The media continues to share news about our clients and their work globally, with coverage in Green Biz, Metro-UK, CNN, and CNBC among others.
