„This commentary outlines a framework to reduce atmospheric CO2 concentration at the scale of gigatonne per year (GT scale) and identifies research opportunities in CO2utilization and negative emissions to achieve this goal. Given that the largest atmosphere-land carbon flux occurs via photosynthesis (∼120 GtC/year), research focused on increasing the fraction of carbon stored on land via plant engineering and land management in agriculture and forestry deserves increased attention. Lowering the cost of carbon capture from dilute sources requires research on advanced sorbents and reactor systems with much improved performance.“
