🌍 Literally - through its holistic approach to building CO2 infrastructure we need to get scale CDR and CCS to achieve net-zero.  🏗️ Check out our latest conversation with  Sophie Wenger , Senior Policy Advisor at the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment, on  CDR Policy Scoop , “How is Switzerland using CO₂ infrastructure to meet its climate targets?” 👀 Catch up to find out about the unsexy but crucial plumbing behind net zero:  ▶️ Youtube:  https://lnkd.in/dH-GeTKn 🎧

📥 Just a few minutes ago, the EU Parliament voted (379 Yes, 248 No, 10 abstentions) to adopt its position on the EU 2040 Target. 🎯Despite attempts by the right to water down the target to 83% – which was thankfully voted down and averted – it’s almost identical to the Council’s position from last week: 90% overall target, 5% international credits, up to 5% additional international credits at member state level, and a review clause every two years. 🌍 A notable difference, h

🇩🇪 Today is the big day: a long time in the making, the German Bundestag finally amended its 2012 law which effectively banned the storage of CO2 (KSpG) with a new law allowing storage, but also transport of CO2 (KSpTG). 🚛 This is huge news, as it creates the foundation for Germany’s ambitious plans to become a leader in carbon management - CCS, CCU, and CDR - and also a key CO2 transit country in Europe. 🏗️ It also attached “overriding public interest” to the constructio

🔄 No surprises here: I’ve been a passionate advocate for the inclusion of carbon removals into the EU’s Emission Trading System (and other ETSs around the world). 🤝 There is another way, though. One which I have personally barely covered and which could prove to be much more effective in scaling this much-needed CDR industry: a removal compliance system. 📑 Carbon Gap is unveiling its new report next week, examining a different path to drive long-term demand for permanent c
