𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟐 #EUClimateAction 🌍

To become climate-neutral, we need to remove CO2 from the atmosphere in addition to cutting emissions.

In December, we proposed🆕 rules to reliably certify high-quality #EUCarbonRemovals and boost innovative solutions.

Komisija predlaže certificiranje uklanjanja ugljika kako bi se postigle nulte neto stope emisija.

You may have been hearing the term ‘carbon removals’ in climate discussions.

But what exactly are carbon removals, and how can they help us fight climate change? 🤔

Sevim Aktas breaks everything down in 90 seconds.

#EUClimateAction #EUCarbonRemovals

Good to listen to Claire Chenu and how she sees the role of #agroforestry as a solution to store & recycle carbon in agriculture at the Sustainable Carbon Cycles Conference #EUCarbonRemovals .

Increasing the use of timber in construction helps mitigate #climatechange . Giving credits for #wood in #construction is low risk as using #wood products causes less #ghgemissions than using the non-wood product #carbonstorage #longlastingproducts #EUCarbonRemovals

Good discussions at EU Climate Action's high-level debate on Sustainable Carbon Cycles, BUT

Why are there 4 businesses and no one from civil society or science on this panel?🧐

If it wasn't for Ville Niinistö this would be better described as 'corporate panel' #EUCarbonRemovals

EPF welcomes the statement of VP Timmermans at #SCCR212LIVE Conference: “Carbon removals are an important tool. We need to provide our industry with circular carbon”. Particleboards made from recycled wood are an industrial scaled circular solution. #EUCarbonRemovals

Digital technologies will play a vital role in supporting and enabling carbon policies and the measurement and accounting that will be at their core.

We're eager to continue the conversation and play our part.

#EUCarbonRemovals #TechFit4Europe

A packed day in Brussels discussing #CDR in the first meeting of EU Climate Action's Carbon Removal Expert Group.

A lot of work to do though, some major unresolved issues with how carbon removal certification is being discussed at the 🇪🇺 level.

Deltar idag via länk på #EUcarbonremovals expertgruppsmöte. På agendan så kallad ' #carbonfarming ', där man vill öka kolupptaget i landsektorn, t.ex. inom olika former av #lantbruk och #skogsbruk . Mötet sänds live via:

Mr Holzleitner, #DG CLIMA said during the ENVI Joint debate on SCC today: “we need to use carbon more sustainably in long-lasting products like woody construction materials.' Wood-based panels do exactly this, they extend carbon cycle and fight climate change. #EUCarbonRemovals

Policies supporting carbon removal are beginning to emerge. Casper Klynge explains how these policies in Europe can help support the growing carbon removal market, while also inspiring the development of similar policies across the Atlantic.

#EUGreenDeal

Today we present a pioneering proposal to help us get to net zero emissions.

The first ever 🇪🇺-wide framework to reliably certify high-quality carbon removals.

To boost innovative natural and industrial carbon removal solutions.

Here's how 👇

#EUCarbonRemovals #EUGreenDeal

.Frans 🏴‍☠️ on the critical role of #EUCarbonRemovals for reaching our climate goals, focusing on both nature & tech-based solutions, stressing the vital role of certification for a high-integrity market, and credible accounting as a next crucial step EU Climate Action

.Keith Whiriskey speaking at #EUCarbonRemovals conference.

First step is most important step: a robust definition of Carbon Dioxide Removal.

With 'net-zero' we cannot compensate an emission with an avoided emission.

🤔How can we make the #EUCarbonRemovals Certification work?

➡️make it transparent
➡️make it reliable
➡️avoid #GreenWashing
