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.

Provides a roadmap and resource for programs and initiatives that are designing protocols, metrics, or incentives to engage farmers and ranchers in large-scale efforts to enhance GHG mitigation on working agricultural land in the United States.
This roadmap includes strategies of the U.S. Forest Service to activity manage carbon stocks in forests, grasslands, and urban areas and to provide technical assistance to enhance carbon sequestration through afforestation and reforestation.
This report presents the conclusions of the Task Force on Climate Remediation Research, which was convened by the Bipartisan Policy Center in 2010 to develop recommendations for the U.S. government on geoengineering research and oversight policy.
This meeting report summarizes discussions of three Working Groups to the IPCC's Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) on geoengineering, including carbon dioxide removal.

The Bonn Challenge is a global goal to bring 150 million hectares of degraded and deforested landscapes into restoration by 2020 and 350 million hectares by 2030.
This article considers the present legal challenges to adjust carbon management policies, specifically carbon crediting schemes, for biochar as a carbon sequestration technique.
