Real Solutions or Expensive Distractions: Proving or Disproving Ocean-based Carbon Dioxide Removal in the Next 5 Years
September 22, 2023 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM, New York (USA)
There is growing interest in ocean-based CDR techniques, but key questions remain about how effective they are in drawing carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and durably storing it, as well as their environmental effects and safety. Join this session by Ocean Visions and co-host Sabin Center for Climate Change Law for an overview of what we know, and don’t yet know, about ocean-based CDR and what we need to do to get actionable information. They will discuss the need for in-ocean research, including controlled field trials, and explore social, ethical, and governance considerations.
