๐ŸšจNew study finds #biochar made from bioenergy crops & residues in China could remove up to 1.88 GtCOโ‚‚/yr with optimized plant logistics and dedicated biomass.

At ~$10/tCOโ‚‚, far cheaper than #BECCS, it offers a scalable, cost-effective carbon removal (#CDR) pathway.

๐Ÿงต1/13 Image
2/ Biochar, a carbon-rich solid produced by pyrolysis of biomass, locks carbon into soils for decades to centuries while improving soil quality and crop yields.

Its stability makes it a promising negative emissions technology (NET) relied on in climate scenarios.
3/ The authors evaluate a hybrid system called BCBE, biochar production with biomass supply from dedicated bioenergy crops grown on abandoned cropland, plus agricultural and forestry residues.

This aims to reduce competition with food production.

๐ŸšจClimate pathways to 1.5ยฐC increasingly depend on land-intensive carbon dioxide removal (#CDR) like forestation and BECCS.

But new research shows these climate solutions could place major pressure on #biodiversity if deployed without safeguards.

Details๐Ÿงต1/11 Image
2/ Using five integrated assessment models, the study examines where large-scale CDR is projected to occur & and how often it overlaps with biodiversity hotspots and climate refugia, the places most critical for species survival. Image
3/ The analysis focuses on a moderate but realistic deployment level of 6 GtCOโ‚‚ per year:
โ€ข 3 GtCOโ‚‚/yr from forestation
โ€ข 3 GtCOโ‚‚/yr from BECCS
Even at this level, land pressures are already significant.

๐ŸšจThe Politics of Geoengineering (book) is out, offering 1st comprehensive social science view of #geoengineering.

It examines political, legal, economic & societal dimensions of CDR & SRM, from Africa to the Asia-Pacific, amid urgent governance & ethical debates

Chapters๐Ÿงต1/15 Image
2/ Chapter 01: Geoengineering has shifted from theory to contested policy, with technology outpacing governance. The analysis highlights political, legal, economic, and justice dimensions and calls for urgent global oversight.

3/ Chapter 2 examines Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) as geoengineering, analyzing CO2 extraction, storage, and conversion, with SWOT insights on techniques and implications for sustainable climate action.

๐ŸšจIs carbon dioxide removal (#CDR) in the Arctic really feasible?

A new peer-reviewed study systematically assessed proposed Arctic CDR pathways and finds that feasibility is far more limited than often assumed.

DETAILS๐Ÿงต1/14 Image
2/ As Arctic warms rapidly (4x) & attracts attention for climate interventions, can it host CDR at meaningful scale?

To answer this, authors conducted a comparative assessment of major CDR approaches proposed for Arctic regions, spanning both nature-based & engineered methods. Image
3/ The analysis draws on existing empirical studies, pilot projects, and modeling literature, evaluating each CDR pathway against biophysical constraints, technical readiness, environmental risks, and governance requirements. Image
