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 analyzes the pre-conditions for BECCS in Tanzania, and argues that negative BECCS-related emissions from Tanzania should not be assumed in global climate mitigation scenarios.
This paper argues that the emergence of a transnational legal process that strengthens the sustainable production of biomass, balances the benefits of BECCS with the negative social and environmental externalities associated with biomass production.
This article, through the case study of BECCS, argues how indulging the concept of a technofix violates human rights and the Sustainable Development Goals.

This article presents a review of information related to the broad uses of biochar products, while discussing the legal aspects and quality standards applicable to biochar use in the European Union.
This study aims to look at the role that international environmental law, both climate law and international law of the marine environment, could or should play in the development of marine geoengineering activities.
This page provides a brief overview of the steps taken by the Contracting Parties to the London Convention and London Protocol to address ocean fertilization since 1999.
An Assessment Framework for Scientific Research Involving Ocean Fertilization developed by the Scientific Groups to the London Convention and London Protocol.
This paper challenges the literature actively promoting negative emission technologies and argues that the risk of undermining ongoing mitigation efforts cannot be significantly reduced by governance design.
This article explores key issues of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) governance, such as promoting the generation of information, mainstreaming CDR into public and policy discussions, and furthering CDR development while avoiding lock-in of technology.
