Carbon Removal Social [Science]

Understanding and addressing the social dimensions of carbon removal can be a challenge. What have we learned so far? Come hear findings and insights from three research efforts.We’ll hear from:

• Holly Jean Buck (University at Buffalo) on a new report on 100 conversations about carbon removal in five regions of the US
• Mahmud Farooque and Amanda Borth (Consortium for Science, Policy and Outcomes, Arizona State University) on research and engagement
• Sara Nawaz (Institute for Responsible Carbon Removal, American University) on research about the social considerations of marine carbon removal

Then, we’ll have a panel conversation about how social science research can help decision-makers think about responsible and just carbon removal deployment, including reflections from:

• Rory Jacobson, Acting Division Director for Carbon Dioxide Removal, Department of Energy
• Marcela Mulholland, Deputy Director of Partnerships, Carbon Removal Alliance

There will be social opportunities for networking, and light refreshments will be served.
