A thread on one of the new bits in the #NetZeroStrategy: greenhouse gas removals (GGR)...
There are many ways to do removal. @GOVUK splits them between biology (e.g. trees and soils, which it puts in the “Natural Resources” part of its strategy) and engineering.
Here I’ll focus on the engineered ones, but the biological ones are worth a thread, too 🌲🌳🟫

Test 1⃣
A credible #NetZeroStrategy is a plan for how the UK will deliver on its National Determined Contribution & be an example for others ahead of #COP26🌏
It must outline expected emissions savings from each sector & provide a robust plan for the government to work towards
