Why We Made this Film
It’s a story so mind-blowing that we often find ourselves telling it to friends at the bar. There’s an NYC startup that transforms carbon into diamonds. It sounds like something from a sci-fi flick.
Currently, mining is the fifth-largest industry in the world, and diamond mining disrupts ecosystems by digging up the earth and releasing CO2 into the atmosphere.
Aether uses captured carbon dioxide to create diamonds chemically identical to ones dug up from the ground. Perhaps jewelry of the future will become a symbol of sustainability.
