Mirova announced a $40M investment in carbon projects across Argentina, Costa Rica, and Madagascar to restore 40,000 hectares, sequester 9.5M tonnes of COโ, and support local communities.
Brazilian carbon removal startup Mombak has secured $30 million in Series A funding, led by Union Square Ventures (USV), to accelerate reforestation and carbon removal projects across the Amazon.
New research shows that large-scale #CDRโessential for 1.5ยฐC or 1ยฐC climate goalsโcould demand vast land areas if we rely on energy crops, potentially up to 10% of todayโs cropland. But tech-based sol could greatly reduce that burden.

2/ Most CDR plans today focus on bioenergy with carbon capture (#BECCS), reforestation, and afforestation. These options are land-intensive. This study compares them with other portfolios that prioritize low land use, low cost, high tech readiness, and security.
3/ The researchers modeled two total CDR targets:
โข 500 GtCOโ for a 1.5ยฐC pathway
โข 1750 GtCOโ for a 1.0ยฐC pathway
They included not just the land for CDR methods, but also for energy sources like solar and wind to run the full CDR-energy-industry system.
