Negative greenhouse gas emission technologies: Potential, limitations and risks

Thursday 08 Mar

Time and Location

The Paris Agreement aims to limit global warming to below 2 °C. However, carbon emissions are unlikely to drop fast enough, so that most climate scenarios assume that CO2 will be actively removed from the air with approaches such as forests, soil, direct air capture, minerals and ocean fertilisation. We will present our new report on these negative emission technologies, whose recommendations feed into the development of net-zero emissions strategies.  

With Michael NORTON, Director, EASAC Environment Programme - Hannah AHO, Bioenergy and Climate campaigner, FERN - Maria VELKOVA, Policy Officer, Low Carbon Technologies Policies and Measures, European Commission - Gregor ERBACH, Policy Analyst, Members’ Research Service, EPRS.
