210 statements on the CRCF were submitted to the European Commission. Here are some of the statements on my radar worth reading and further down my analysis:
Negative Emissions Platform (Chris Sherwood) - https://lnkd.in/e-_5DKGk
Carbon Business Council (Ben Rubin, Isabella Corpora) - https://lnkd.in/e6WVuXym
European Biochar Industry Consortium (Thomas Hämmerle, Harald Bier) - https://lnkd.in/epXpTjSU

Carbo Culture (Hanna Ojanen) - https://lnkd.in/euYQpxaJ
Puro.earth (Helen Bray) - https://lnkd.in/eUeWcdR7
Carbon Engineering Ltd. (Omar Zin Abidine) - https://lnkd.in/e3BpQprd
Bioenergy Europe (Ennio Prizzi, Irene di Padua) - https://lnkd.in/emS_tTwF
Carbon Gap (Verena Hofbauer) - https://lnkd.in/eeGT_FnX
Stockholm Exergi (Johan Börje) - https://lnkd.in/edzeWp23
Carbonfuture - https://lnkd.in/efCf4kFX
Here are some common themes that stand out in these statements:
⚡ Technology neutral approach to permanence
Ensuring that permanence is not limited to CDR with geological storage and based on key principles instead (permanence, additionality, sustainability, etc.).
🔍 More focus on applications and use cases
Ensuring that potential use cases both in the voluntary (#VCM) and particularly in the compliance market (e.g. #ETS) are made explicit to realise the full potential impact of the CRCF.
💡 Elevating the role of Biochar Carbon Removal
Ensuring that #BCR - one of the most promising CDR technologies available today - is adequately represented and necessary liability frameworks are put in place.
🔑 Keeping the CRCF focused on quality removals
Ensuring no emission reductions or avoidance find their way into the CRCF and maintaining the highest standards for removals to create trust in the process.
🌏 Harmonisation with other regulation
Creating linkages with key European policies for legislative consistency and with international policies to enable non-EU stakeholders to interact with the CRCF.
