Governance of land-based negative-emission technologies to promote biodiversity conservation: lessons from Australia
This paper argues that domestic laws should be used to maximize the benefits of NETs while minimizing trade-offs for biodiversity.
Lessons from Renewable Energy Diffusion for Carbon Dioxide Removal Development
This paper focuses on price regulations, typically in the form of price subsidies (FITs) or tenders (competitive auctions), in developing carbon dioxide removal technologies.
The relevance of sustainable soil management within the European Green Deal
This paper addresses the importance of soils within the European Green Deal and identifies the significance of soils in Biodiversity Strategy, Farm to Fork and Climate Law.

This bill would establish an executive committee at the National Science and Technology Council to coordinate interagency efforts on carbon removal research and development.
Land Use: Policies for a Net Zero UK
This report focuses on the policies to reduce land-based emissions of greenhouse gases such that around one-fifth of agricultural land in the UK is released by 2050 for actions that reduce emissions and sequester carbon.
Policy framework for deep emissions reductions and carbon removals in agriculture and land use in the UK
This report's objective is to identify policy options to drive emissions reductions and carbon removal within existing agricultural systems and through changes in land use.
