How green cities could remove CO2 from the atmosphere

One gigatonne per year by mid-century: An study determines the potentials, various co-benefits and possible barriers to implementation

06-May-2024 - More than a thousand cities around the world now have “net zero” pledges: they want to emit only as much CO2 into the atmosphere as they can simultaneously recapture. An elaborate meta-study has now summarised the state of knowledge on which methods might be useful and what they could achieve. ...

New report reveals “large gap” in carbon dioxide removal needed

“CDR is not something we could do, but something we absolutely have to do to reach the Paris Agreement temperature goal”

24-Jan-2023 - Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) from the atmosphere, alongside rapidly reducing emissions, is needed to reach the Paris Agreement temperature goal to limit warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius and pursue efforts to achieve 1.5°C. This is highlighted in the first “State of Carbon Dioxide Removal” ...

Capturing carbon directly from the air – that has a future

Study analyzes energy requirements for negative emissions technologies

06-Mar-2019 - Using special filters to remove the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) directly from the air could be the best way to generate so-called negative emissions, at the scale of many billions of tons of CO2 per year throughout the world by 2050. “Direct Air Capture” has many characteristics that can ...
