CDR needs global policy coordination

Using technology to help remove carbon dioxide from our atmosphere has a long way to go, not only in terms of technology, but also in terms of policy. What technologies can be deployed at scale to make a difference? What rules will these efforts follow? How will these efforts be coordinated? How are we sure they won’t do more harm than good, or pull resources away from other efforts to fight climate change?

These are all vital questions, highlighted in this New York Times article from April 2, 2024. The answers can only be found through global conversations that bring all stakeholder groups together to share their knowledge and perspectives.

SCI’s new Global CDR Forum project hopes to accomplish exactly this. Stay tuned to the CDR website for developments at https://cdrforum.org.
