The role of companies in scaling up sustainable carbon dioxide removal
Limiting global warming to 1.5°C or well below 2°C requires deep and sustained reductions in greenhouse gas emissions as a top priority. In addition, the removal of carbon dioxide will be necessary. Only durable forms of disposal that store CO₂ on millennial timescales can effectively neutralize residual fossil fuel emissions.
