It was fantastic to interview?Gabrielle Walker?earlier this year and learn about the vital work she and the teams at CUR8 and Rethinking Removals are doing in the #carbondioxideremoval space. She and Dominique Airey have an incredibly refreshing way of looking at the buying side of the CDR space: "Most people say it's demand-constrained; we say it's demand-suppressed. In other words, there is a lot of demand out there, but it’s not being realised at the moment. Everyone who's set a #netzero target is beginning to understand that at least 10% of it will have to involve removals, and they will have to build up to that. But so far, few of them are acting. What's interesting to me is what's suppressing that demand. So, it's not how you generate the demand but how you remove the blockers." Thanks for your time,?Gabrielle; I definitely came away from this feeling more positive about the future of CDR!

Curious about how #carbon is being removed from the atmosphere, right now - and around the world? We at Rethinking Removals want to share great examples of work being done, #now, to help ensure a cleaner and better #future. Like the launch of Holocene's first direct air capture (DAC) pilot in Knoxville, Tennessee. https://lnkd.in/eN9TCAPQ. Congrats!!

Equatic.tech, Global Carbon Market Utility & Heirloom are joining our incredible group of innovators and leaders in the carbon removal space. ?? Each of these organisations brings unique expertise and solutions to the table, and we can’t wait to collaborate with them to accelerate the development of effective carbon removal solutions.??? Equatic.tech: leverages a first-of-a-kind electrolytic approach that removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere whilst producing green hydrogen. ?? Global Carbon Market Utility: building the market infrastructure for a trustworthy VCM, using existing contract forms to enable banks and insurance companies to enter the market and provide project financing. ? Heirloom: uses limestone to capture carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere before permanently storing it underground, or in materials like concrete. ? Welcome to the Doers Club, Equatic, GCMU and Heirloom! 1PointFive, Carbon Engineering, Drax Group, Novocarbo, Octavia Carbon, Stockholm Exergi, UNDO, Carbonfuture, CUR8, NEXTGEN FACILITY SERVICES, ACR at Winrock International Climate Action Platform for Africa (CAP-A), C-Capsule, IETA, Kita, Puro.earth #CarbonRemoval #ClimateAction #Collaboration #Innovation

?? Carbon removal is becoming an increasingly important tool for cities and counties to reach their ambitious climate goals. ?? In this article, our Impact Director, Christopher Neidl, emphasises the importance of measuring and verifying carbon removal, stating “If you can’t measure it, it didn’t happen”. He also calls for the explicit incorporation of carbon removals into the net-zero plans of local governments and the importance of considering environmental justice requirements in related policies. ?? Check out the article below to learn more and hear about inspiring examples of local carbon removal initiatives, such as the 4Corners Carbon Removal Coalition’s concrete projects and the Community Alliance for Direct Air Capture in California. ??? #CarbonRemoval #ClimateAction #SustainableCities https://lnkd.in/e7uX3bqp

What a great initiative by our friends at CDRjobs. As the CDR industry grows rapidly, the demand for qualified talent is higher than ever. If you're ready to dive into this exciting field check out the wide range of role openings at CDRjobs.

Rethinking Removals is proud to support The Carbon Dioxide Removal Leadership Act (SB 308). This model legislation, as law, will activate California as a major hub for carbon removal activity, while directly helping the state meet its next zero goals! Isaac Bryan. #SB308

Gabrielle Walker?chaired the session "Beyond Net Zero: Building the Business Case for Carbon Removals" at the World Energy Council 26th Congress - and delivered a clear overview of the science behind carbon removals, aligning the hearts and minds in the room to the realities we face - and the great opportunities that can be harnessed with carbon removals. Panelists?Brian Moran, Chief Sustainability Officer at?Boeing,?Rafael Matas Trillo, Director Infrastructure and Energy, Head of the Andean Region & Energy Sector Lead at?IDB Invest,?Steve Smith, Executive Director at?Oxford Net Zero?and CO2RE and?Roland Roesch, Director IRENA Innovation and Technology Center at?International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) joined her in discussing the business case of including carbon removals into corporate net zero strategies - as the audience joined-in with sharing their 'elephants in the room about carbon removals' leading to a fun, interesting, and dynamic sessions- just like the fast-moving carbon removals space! Thank you to?the?World Energy Council?and the organising team - it was a very insightful few days at the Congress. CUR8?#wec2024
