Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) techniques, or negative emission technologies (NETs), are a suite of natural and technological pathways to remove and sequester carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the air. Unlike carbon capture and storage, these techniques remove CO₂ directly from the atmosphere or enhance natural carbon sinks.

This paper asks to what extent and how existing UN, EU, and Swedish climate policy instruments incentivize BECCS research, development, demonstration, and deployment in Sweden.
This policy brief outlines policy proposals for deploying engineered carbon removal technologies in California, including the key barriers limiting development progress and actionable solutions to overcome those barriers.
The article addresses the international legal issues surrounding the large-scale deployment of BECCS, while proposing steps to avoid detrimental impacts.
