Symposium on Biomass-Based Carbon Removal
About this Event
The symposium will bring together researchers, policymakers, and industry leaders to explore pathways for scaling biomass-based carbon removal from today’s modest levels to systemic, gigaton-scale deployment, moving beyond debates about whether carbon removal is needed towards how it can be responsibly designed, implemented, and governed in real regional and industrial contexts.
The objective is to support regional policymakers and industries in understanding the risks and opportunities of becoming first movers in the emerging carbon management economy.
