According to the IPCC, carbon dioxide removal – either via technology, nature-based solutions or hybrid methods – is essential to achieving the Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting global average temperature rise to 1.5 ºC.

More information on its different roles on a net-zero pathway, the different types of removal and their potential, and the key challenges for implementation are described in Catavento’s factsheet #8, available for download by clicking here or in the image below.
