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 report addresses how can companies and individuals can fund negative emissions technologies in a safe and effective way to help solve the climate crisis.

This report sets out to examine the broad policy frameworks that can support the development and upscaling of CDR and, in particular, whether CDR can be supported by offsetting schemes.
This legislation combines several bills that aim to invest in green infrastructure and energy efficiency, renewable technologies, energy sources, and workforce training, including sections to further develop negative emission technologies and CCS.

This report identifies a set of actions, investments, and policies that can best lay a foundation for growing deployment of CCS and large-scale carbon dioxide removal through engineered systems to meet net-zero global emissions targets.
This report assesses the current state of affairs surrounding technological CDR in the United States and provides concrete policy recommendations for action at the Federal level.

This report presents a comprehensive review of the existing literature on the potential forms of negative emissions technology (NET), with a particular focus on technology options suitable for deployment in Ireland.
This report brings together experts from the European Academies Science Advisory Council to review the available technologies for carbon dioxide removal and how they frame the EU's position within the Paris Agreement.
