A national network of CO2 and biomass transportation infrastructure, spanning pipelines to rail routes, will be needed to support the permanent removal of atmospheric CO2. Can the network be economically built?
Can Carbon-Negative Oil Be Climate Positive?
The fossil fuel industry is investing billions of dollars into projects that will use carbon dioxide captured from the air to produce more oil. What will be the climate impact?
The Potential, and Risks, of Nature-Based Climate Solutions
Nature-based climate solutions can play a major role in climate change mitigation and adaptation. But biodiversity risks, and community impacts, loom large.
The Challenge of Scaling Negative Emissions
The author of the first text book on carbon capture looks at the potential for negative emissions technologies to limit global warming, and discusses the challenge to scaling solutions for positive climate impact.
IEA Challenged to Address Limits to Negative Emissions
Use IEA’s World Energy Outlook to push for more climate action, investors and researchers say. And, be transparent on the limits to negative emissions.
A Hard Look at Negative Emissions
Much faith is being put in the ability of negative emissions technologies to slow the pace of climate change. Glen Peters of Norway’s Center for International Climate Research looks at the potential of negative emissions strategies, and the steep challenges to implementing them.
