🌍 What role can CDR play in the “Survival of the Greenest”?

✅ The green transition represents a huge opportunity for countries to promote economic growth. Those who succeed will reap the rewards for decades to come. Those who ignore it, are likely to fall behind.

🏛️ Markets alone will not be sufficient: strong, coordinated industrial policy is needed to create and promote these new sectors.

📗 Amir Lebdioui is the author of this compelling book and also the Director of TIDE Centre, University of Oxford. He personally advises governments around the world - and especially in the Global South - on how to succeed in creating such policy.

🤩 A while back, Amir approached me with the offer to write a dedicated paper on the role of CDR within Global South industrial policy. The resulting paper - co-authored with Raphaël Cario - was published by the TIDE Center in December and already downloaded 1,000 times.

📈 Through an analysis of Global South potential and constraints, it concludes that with the right policies, durable CDR could create 3-9.5 million jobs and $180-600 billion in annual economic value across the Global South by 2050. It also provides specific policy guidance on how governments can realise this.

🎙️ Thrilled to have Amir join us on the upcoming CDR Policy Scoop, where alongside Eve Tamme we will be diving deep into his experiences advising governments, what works, what doesn’t, and what this all means for CDR.
