🧵Among other places, this tweet has been cited in a @TEDTalks, an @theAGU presentation, and a @FullyChargedShw episode about CDR. Now there’s a legit way to cite it in @Nature. 1/2
1️⃣ It's hard for people to visualize removing tons or billions of tons of CO₂. What if we talked about CO₂ removal (CDR) like a time machine (e.g., this machine will take us back 5 minutes*)? *ignoring the hysteresis in the relationship between CO₂ and climate change impacts.

Nine years after the Paris Agreement was adopted, it is clear that negative-emission technologies are required to keep 1.5°C, or even 2°C, of global warming in reach. Yet carbon dioxide removal (CDR)...

“The way to make carbon dioxide removal (CDR) successful is to insist on the right framing for its role. It is not a substitution for decarbonization. It’s a separate process, occurring mostly after decarbonization is complete, for legacy and residual emissions.”

Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) is a promising CO₂ removal (CDR) strategy, but monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) involves running computationally expensive climate models. We propose a statistical technique to simplify the MRV problem. https://t.co/SG9QGMgUxJ

We spent 4 years working on this paper about the scientific, legal, economic, and governance considerations of whether coastal and marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) can help close the emissions gap. Please take a look and tell me if it was worth it. https://t.co/Krehsok9JV
