Leading climate models have made clear that the deployment of carbon removal to counterbalance hard-to-abate residual emissions is likely to be unavoidable if economies are to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. Despite this, there is a considerable lack of high-quality carbon removal projects operating around the world, with many profiting from carbon offsets while removing little CO2 from the atmosphere. At COP27, we hosted a panel with carbon removal experts to discuss how a new approach to carbon removal can more effectively move us towards our climate goals — one which places emphasis on setting clear national targets for removals, effectively regulates CO2 offsets, and establishes clear financing mechanisms.
