Carbon180: Incentivizing DAC deployment with the ESIC Act
„Tax credits can help launch DAC projects beyond RD[&]D.“
Our Daily Planet: Solve for C: Why carbon dioxide removal is an essential part of the climate change equation
„Climate change is a complex equation. To avert its worst impacts, we must find a way to limit global average temperature rise to well below 2° C, consistent with the Paris Agreement. This will require us to combine deep emissions reductions and robust carbon dioxide removal (CDR).“
IEA: The world has vast capacity to store CO2: Net zero means we’ll need it
„Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) will need to be a key pillar in successful clean energy transitions.“
Axios: The quest to put carbon to rest at sea
„The Earth’s ocean acts as a global climate regulator, and scientists are increasingly studying its chemistry and geology to find potential ways to store carbon dioxide captured from emissions or removed from the air.“
Liu, Meishen; et al. (2021): Integrated CO 2 Capture and Removal via Carbon Mineralization with Inherent Regeneration of Aqueous Solvents
Liu, Meishen; Hohenshil, Allison; Gadikota, Greeshma (2021): Integrated CO 2 Capture and Removal via Carbon Mineralization with Inherent Regeneration of Aqueous Solvents. In Energy Fuels. DOI: 10.1021/acs.energyfuels.0c04346.
„In this study, single-step integrated CO2 capture and carbonate formation pathways with the inherent regeneration of the aqueous solvents for CO2 capture are reported.“
Thakur, Naineeka Singh; et al. (2020): Entrapment of Carbon Dioxide Using Bagasse and Soda Lime
Thakur, Naineeka Singh; Gholap, Shreyash; Sisodiya, Mahipalsing; Gilbile, Vaibhav; Bulbule, Aniruddh (2020): Entrapment of Carbon Dioxide Using Bagasse and Soda Lime. In International Journal of Engineering Applied Sciences and Technology 5 (1), pp. 619–622. Available online at http://www.ijeast.com/.
„The report describes the use of a new material for Direct Air Capture (DAC). The CO2 entrapment machine is useful for absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere and can be used at outdoor and indoor public areas too.“
Michaelowa, Axel (2021): Solar Radiation Modification ‐ A “Silver Bullet” Climate Policy for Populist and Authoritarian Regimes?
Michaelowa, Axel (2021): Solar Radiation Modification ‐ A “Silver Bullet” Climate Policy for Populist and Authoritarian Regimes? In Glob Policy 12 (S1), pp. 119–128. DOI: 10.1111/1758-5899.12872.
„We discuss the incentive structure and political economy that populist and authoritarian leaders may face regarding unilateral use of SRM and elaborate how the international community could try to prevent or at least ‘contain’ such unilateral uses of SRM. Unfortunately, such ‘containment’ is contingent on the most powerful states not being populist or authoritarian regimes.“

Lovera‐Bilderbeek, Simone; Lahiri, Souparna (2021): Addressing power imbalances in biosequestration governance. In Glob Policy 12 (S1), pp. 57–66. DOI: 10.1111/1758-5899.12882.
„The paper will explore to what extent theoretical concepts like rights‐based approaches have been able to address these conflicts and power imbalances, and whether more profound changes in governance systems are required to ensure equitable implementation of CDR.“
