As greenhouse gas removal scales up, how do we know how much we're removing? How do we monitor, report & verify the results? Our next GGR Insights webinar will examine these questions. Join us on 19 Nov to hear from experts in monitoring, reporting & verification (MRV): co2re.org/events/ggr-i...

Out today: the very 1st Insight Report from the @stateofcdr.bsky.social team, which looks at G20 pledges on CO2 removal ahead of COP30. ⬇️

The UK Govt published its Independent Review of Greenhouse Gas Removals yesterday. We were pleased to have the opportunity to contribute evidence, & the Review cites research from across our programme. Read our reaction here: co2re.org/reaction-to-...

Last week we hosted the 4th webinar in our GGR Insights series. In 'Making space for "place" in carbon removal: learning from the communities of St Ives Bay', we explored a marine CO2 removal trial in Cornwall & the community response to it. Watch the recording on YouTube: youtu.be/_MgoETf3-Sg?...

Independent Review of Greenhouse Gas Removals, for UK government, by Dr Alan Whitehead "Without GGRs we cannot meet net zero" Also says GGR should compete with SAF to decarbonise aviation www.gov.uk/government/p...

We're delighted that recordings from Impact Day of the UK GGR Event are now available! Watch recordings of the 4 plenary sessions, plus a session on the recently published GGR regulatory review, which looks at all the laws applying to GGR across the UK: youtube.com/playlist?lis...

In Bristol next weekend? Head to Centrespace Gallery & check out Studio Blue Green's project "Phycologica" an interactive, immersive installation showcasing microalgae’s ability to sequester CO2 through the animating power of breath.

🚨REMINDER: "Making space for 'place' in carbon removal: learning from the communities of St Ives Bay" is happening tomorrow at 12pm. All welcome! We hope to see you there! @drrobbellamy.bsky.social @a-laurie-waller.bsky.social @uomseed.bsky.social co2re.org/events/makin...

As more GGR projects take place around the UK, community engagement & buy-in, & a deep understanding of the local environment, will be key to their success. What happens when these are absent? Is it possible for GGR projects to reinforce community-led climate action?

Thanks to all who took part in #UKGGR2025! We'll share more highlights soon. In the meantime, we're restarting our GGR Insights webinars. Join us on 15 Oct at 12pm for "Making space for 'place' in carbon removal: learning from the communities of St Ives Bay". More info: co2re.org/events/makin...

And that's it for #UKGGR2025! It's been an incredible event. Thank you so much to everyone who took part, & to the wonderful people at @rigb.org for hosting us. We can't wait to see where GGR goes next in the UK & beyond.

We’re in the final plenary of the day – “Phase Shift: Where next for UK GGR”, chaired by @daisydunne.carbonbrief.org. Dr Alan Whitehead CBE, who is Chair of the Greenhouse Gas Removals Independent Review, has taken us through how GGR can help the UK meet its net zero targets.

A few insights from the session: Dr Andrew Lenton of CarbonLock said that GGR resonates with young people in Australia & working together with First Nations on GGR is key.

Out today: a comprehensive review of the regulations that apply to GGR across the UK, based on interviews w/regulators, government agencies, researchers & industry, written by Navraj Singh Ghaleigh & Marsaili van Looy of Edinburgh Law School. Read it here or scan the code: co2re.org/wp-content/u...

What's happening in GGR around the world? That's the theme of our 3rd plenary today & we have speakers offering perspectives from the US, Australia, India & Germany. Alyssa Gilbert of @granthamicl.bsky.social & @undaunted-hq.bsky.social is chairing.
