Siber-Impact

1. Methane Avoided (Landfill Diversion)

Urban logs decomposing anaerobically in landfills generate methane.
Siber prevents this entirely.

~50 tCO₂e avoided per facility per year

2. Diesel Emissions Avoided (Street‑Level Chipping)

If Siber didn’t intercept these logs, municipalities would chip them.

·         12,000 logs/year

·         ~90 hours of diesel chipping avoided

·         ~40.6 kg CO₂/hour from a 12" chipper

~3.6 tCO₂ avoided per facility per year

3. Biochar Carbon Storage

When logs are ultimately converted to biochar:

~5 tCO₂e stored per facility per year
Stable carbon locked away for centuries.

Potential; Once Scaled

National logs available ~70 million/year

Logs processed per Siber site ~12,000 logs/year

Sites needed ~400,000 sites

National CO2e avoided (methane + diesel + biochar) ~22 million tCO2e/year

Solar equivalent ~25 GW of utility-scale solar (vs gas)

Upfront CO2 for solar+BESS projects ~600,000–650,000 tCO2e embedded before operation

Full capture of ~70 million suburban logs/year

Is 400,000 Sites Realistic?

Surprisingly, yes — the U.S. already has far more community‑scale gathering points.

Number in USA:

Churches ~400,000 Same order of magnitude

Schools ~130,000 1 Siber site per school + partners

Gyms / CrossFit ~100,000 Scales like fitness culture

Municipalities ~19,000 Many can host multiple sites

Parks ~30,000 Natural Siber locations

Siber doesn’t need 400,000 new buildings. It needs 400,000 places where people already gather and move.

Siber’s Strengths

• Carbon negative from day one

• Zero manufacturing footprint

• Zero land impact

• Immediate methane avoidance

• Community engagement + education

• Ultra‑low cost to deploy

• Scales through participation, not capital

Carbon negative - Immediate methane and diesel avoidance + carbon storage

Zero manufacturing footprint - No steel, silicon, lithium, or concrete

Zero land impact - Uses existing land and waste wood

Immediate methane avoidance - Stops landfill emissions before they start

Community engagement - People learn by doing

Ultra low cost - Deploys without industrial capital

Scales through participation - Grows like fitness culture, not infrastrcuture project or utilities

Siber’s Challenges

• Distributed model — many small sites, not a few large ones

• Human‑powered — depends on participation and culture

• Behavioral adoption — people must choose to engage

• Coordination with municipalities — access to logs varies

• Consistency — climate benefit depends on steady throughput

• Per‑site impact is modest — the power is in the network

Distributed model - Many small sites, not a few large ones

Human powered - Depends on participation and culture

Behavioral adoption - People must choose to engage

Municipal coordination - Log access varies by region

Consistency - Climate benefit depends on steady throughput

Per-site impact modest - The power is in the network, not the node
