UAE Carbon Dioxide Removal

We believe one of the most important priorities in the world is to remove the excess CO2 out of the atmosphere. Reducing emissions must be prioritised, of course. Alongside this, the removal of excess carbon dioxide from current levels of 424 parts-per-million must also be addressed.

With this challenge, it has been our honour to work in partnership with two inspirational partners, UAE Independent Climate Change Accelerators (UICCA) and Carbon Gap (the not-for-profit dedicated to carbon dioxide removal) and host the UAE Carbon Removal Breakthrough Coalition in the UAE.

Leaders from world-leading carbon dioxide removal (CDR) companies joined leaders from government, corporates, finance, and civil society, including young leaders, have joined us in exploring how the ecosystem can come together to make a world leading strategy for carbon dioxide removal.  

Eight streams have been formed with extraordinary experts – the streams included Carbon Markets, Finance, Policy, Standards and Regulation, Direct Air Capture, Ocean Solutions, Nature-based Solutions, Enhanced Weathering and Mineralisation, and Societal Engagement.
