OUR HISTORY

Discover the inspirational story of Juan Carlos Sesma, founder of CO2 Revolution

CO2 Revolution was founded in 2014 by Juan Carlos Sesma, motivated by the consequences of climate change he observed during his stay in Colombia. Sesma, a specialist in process optimization, identified massive deforestation and carbon dioxide emissions as the main causes of this climate challenge. In 2016, he returned to Spain to develop a solution to create complete and sustainable ecosystems on a large scale. With the help of Enrique Carrasco, a Cistercian friar from the Monastery of La Oliva in Navarra, he developed smart seeds, an innovative technology to capture CO2 and increase forest area.
