❎ One tonne ≠ one tonne?

🧩 The carbon removal market is still a patchwork. Every tonne today is different: different methods, durability, MRV, co-benefits, and prices.
🪙 But if we ever want a liquid, scalable market, we’ll eventually need fungibility - the ability to trade removals as a single, trusted unit.
Because let’s be honest:
💸 CDR needs to attract billions - eventually trillions of investment
🏦 That’s only possible if large financial institutions can access and trade removals easily.
🤯 Today, the market is extremely inaccessible - it takes whole teams (or consultants) to navigate contracts, due diligence, and certification.
🧐 So, should we evolve toward a fungible, standardised CDR asset or would that strip away the nuance and integrity that matter most?
