5 ways to remove carbon and tackle the climate crisis

It refers to removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, while carbon capture and use or storage (CCUS) captures carbon from burning fossil fuels, which doesn''t directly reduce atmospheric carbon levels. Carbon removal can either happen via nature-based solutions or tech-based solutions – or a combination of both.

The evidence is clear: the time for action is now. We can halve

For 1.5°C (2.7°F), this means achieving net zero carbon dioxide emissions globally in the early 2050s; for 2°C (3.6°F), it is in the early 2070s. This assessment shows that limiting warming to around 2°C (3.6°F) still requires global greenhouse gas emissions to peak before 2025 at the latest, and be reduced by a quarter by 2030.
