More Than Carbon The Co-benefits and Value Proposition of Engineered Carbon Removal

1 minute read

Engineered carbon removal (ECR) is a form of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) that uses human- made technologies to capture carbon dioxide from ambient air or oceans. In some cases, ECR accelerates the speed of natural carbon dioxide uptake and/or transfers the captured carbon dioxide to more permanent storage through technological means. While ECR is essential for mitigating the impacts of climate change, it also provides a range of economic and broader environmental co-benefits.
