Carbon Dioxide Removal

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.

Evaluation of the Opportunities for Generating Carbon Offsets from Soil Sequestration of Biochar

2010
Scholarly Work
Steven De Gryze, Michael Cullen , Leslie Durschinger
This paper aims to provide a comprehensive review of the issues involved in generating carbon offsets from the production and incorporation of biochar into soil, with a focus on the use of biochar in the United States.

Geoengineering and Climate Management: From Marginality to Inevitability

2010
Scholarly Work
Jay Michaelson
This essay argues in support of research into geoengineering, including ocean iron fertilization, because it is a potentially fast and cheap solution to climate change and should be carefully researched before it needs to be deployed.
