COP29: Carbon Dioxide Removal is needed to reach net zero by 2050
To achieve net zero emissions by 2050, we must significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and actively remove CO₂ from the atmosphere. Thus, carbon…
What is the potential of bioCCS to deliver negative emissions in Norway?
If we are to achieve our climate goals, we need to remove CO2 from the atmosphere and drastically reduce our current emissions. Bioenergy production with carbon capture and storage (bioCCS) is one way to permanently remove CO2 from the atmosphere. However, while it is expected to be a main component of global climate action, key questions for Norway are: how much biomass is available, and how much can be used for bioCCS?
Mirrors in space: can geoengineering help fix the climate problem?
A few years ago, “geoengineering” – the notion of intentionally changing the Earth’s climate to combat climate change – was considered a dirty word. However, have we now come to the point where we need to consider it as an option?
The significance of CCS in achieving net-zero emissions
This blog goes back to basics on our net-zero ambitions and why they matter, and breaks down the essential role that CCS and CDR have to play in reaching them.
Q&A: Investigating Direct Air Capture (DAC)
The removal of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere has been highlighted as a critical component of almost every path to achieving the goals…
COP28: Why we need carbon dioxide removal
Drastically reducing greenhouse gas emissions won’t be enough to achieve the goals in the Paris agreement and reach net-zero emissions by 2050. We will also need to remove excess greenhouse gases, in particular CO2, from the atmosphere and oceans. This is known as “carbon dioxide removal” (CDR).
