Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR)

Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) refers to various techniques aimed at removing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere to help combat climate change. These methods can include technologies that capture CO2 from the air or industrial processes, as well as natural solutions like reforestation and soil management. By reducing atmospheric CO2 levels, CDR aims to lower global temperatures and mitigate the impacts of climate change, supporting the transition to a sustainable future. CDR is an essential part of global efforts to achieve climate goals and reduce the effects of greenhouse gas emissions.

    Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) refers to methods and technologies designed to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and store it safely to combat climate change. By removing CO2, we can help lower greenhouse gas levels, which contribute to global warming. CDR techniques include natural processes like afforestation (planting trees) and technologies such as direct air capture, where machines absorb CO2. The goal of CDR is not only to reduce emissions but also to actively remove existing CO2, making it essential for achieving climate targets and creating a sustainable future.
