Legion 44 is a groundbreaking film that shines a much-needed spotlight on carbon dioxide removal (CDR)—one of the most vital tools in our fight against climate change. In his role as the ambassador for Carbon Drawdown Initiative, Damir Tomicic, CEO of Business Tech, had the honor of attending the European premiere of the movie. This cinematic masterpiece explores the science, innovation, and relentless determination of those working to reverse atmospheric damage and secure a sustainable future for generations to come.

Damir shared his impressions:

A massive thank you goes to my dear friend and true CDR visionary, Dirk Paessler, whose work as an investor, executive producer, and advocate for carbon removal made this project possible. Dirk’s unwavering commitment to CDR initiatives, including this film, inspires me every day to continue supporting the cause.

I enjoyed seeing Sebastian Manhart from DVNE advocating passionately for CDR in the film. His dedication to this cause, alongside the work of so many others, underscores the urgent need to bring CDR into the mainstream conversation.

We need more visibility for this critical topic—not just to inspire action but to empower individuals, businesses, and governments to make impactful choices.

Huge applause to the Legion 44 team: Leila Conners, Fabian Nilsson, Paulina Villalonga, and Mathew Schmid, for bringing this powerful story to life with stunning visuals and compelling narratives.

This film is more than a story—it’s a call to action. Let’s amplify this message and bring more visibility to CDR. Together, we can make a difference.
