Negative Emissions Technologies (NETs)

Negative Emissions Technologies (NETs) refer to methods designed to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, effectively reducing greenhouse gas levels. This is crucial for combating climate change, as it helps offset emissions that are difficult to eliminate. Techniques include direct air capture, which uses machines to extract CO2 from the air, and natural solutions like reforestation and soil carbon storage. By implementing NETs, we aim to achieve a balance in our carbon footprint, potentially making it possible to reach climate goals and stabilize global temperatures.
