Contested framings of greenhouse gas removal and its feasibility: Social and political dimensions [PDF]

WIREs Climate Change, 2020
AbstractProspective approaches for large‐scale greenhouse gas removal (GGR) are now central to the post‐2020 international commitment to pursue efforts to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5°C. However, the feasibility of large‐scale GGR has been repeatedly questioned.

Losing out in Land-Based Greenhouse Gas Removal

Exchanges
Biochar is an emergent technology that is currently being investigated for its greenhouse gas removal potential at scale. This provides an ideal opportunity to investigate the potential injustices that may arise with biochar production and deployment so

Blurred Lines: The Ethics and Policy of Greenhouse Gas Removal at Scale [PDF]

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2018
The topic of Greenhouse Gas Removal (GGR) for climate geoengineering is becoming increasingly salient following the IPCC's 5th Assessment Report and the Paris Agreement. GGR is thought of as a separate category to mitigation techniques such as low-carbon

A country-level assessment of the deployment potential of greenhouse gas removal technologies

Journal of Environmental Management, 2022
The deployment of greenhouse gas removal (GGR) technologies has been identified as an indispensable option in limiting global warming to 1.5 °C by the end of the century. Despite this, many countries are yet to include and promote this option in their long-term plans owing to factors such as uncertainty in technical potential, deployment feasibility ...

Photocatalytic Removal of the Greenhouse Gas Nitrous Oxide by Liposomal Microreactors

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2022
AbstractNitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse and ozone‐reactive gas for which emissions are growing rapidly due to increasingly intensive agriculture. Synthetic catalysts for N2O decomposition typically contain precious metals and/or operate at elevated temperatures driving a desire for more sustainable alternatives.

Assessment of optimal conditions for the performance of greenhouse gas removal methods

Journal of Environmental Management, 2021
In this study, a comparative literature-based assessment of the impact of operational factors such as climatic condition, vegetation type, availability of land, water, energy and biomass, management practices, cost and soil characteristics was carried out on six greenhouse gas removal (GGR) methods.

Incumbency, Trust and the Monsanto Effect: Stakeholder Discourses on Greenhouse Gas Removal [PDF]

Environmental Values, 2020
This paper explores factors shaping perceptions of Greenhouse Gas Removal (GGR) amongst a range of informed stakeholders, with a particular focus on their role in future social and political systems. We find considerable ambivalence regarding the role of climate targets and incumbent interests in relation to GGR.
