Exploring Carbon Removal – Key to a Balanced Earth 🌍 Recent data highlights the urgent need for diverse carbon removal strategies. From 2010-2019, 46% of CO2 emissions remained in the atmosphere, while 31% was absorbed by terrestrial plants and 23% by the oceans. However, ocean absorption increases acidification, underscoring the importance of alternative carbon removal methods. Carbon removal spans natural processes and technological innovations, often combining both for effective capture and storage. These methods are crucial for securing carbon sustainably and ensuring it's locked away from our atmosphere. As we look forward, understanding and investing in a mix of carbon removal pathways is vital for our planet's health and balance.

How to become a Puro certified carbon removal supplier? For a supplier to be issued CO2 Removal Certificates (CORCs) the product or process that sequesters carbon and the production facility must be verified to comply with a Puro Standard methodology. Once initially qualified by the Puro Team, there are three steps to making a claim that your production is carbon net-negative: 📃 You must have documented evidence of the carbon footprint of your production: an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) or a Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) for the cradle-to-gate carbon footprint of your production. If you don’t have an LCA or EPD, we can put you in contact with partner companies who can do it for you. 📩 Send the EPD or LCA document to your account manager. ✅ When we have this information, we will start a verification process by contacting you within the coming days.

What is Geologically Stored Carbon (GSC)? GSC refers to the overall process of storing CO2 in underground geological formations for the purpose of permanent CO2 removal. A CO2 capture and storage process usually consists of the fundamental components of capture, transport, and injection and storage. In a typical GSC operation, CO2 is captured (e.g. directly from the atmosphere, or from a bioenergy facility), liquefied and transported (via pipeline, rail, ship, or trucks) to the storage site where it is pumped from a surface facility into a saline aquifer or other suitable deep geological formation, where CO2 is initially stored as a free phase within the host formation. Another possibility is that CO2 and water are simultaneously pumped down, and carbon dioxide enters the host formation in a dissolved state. Once underground, CO2 is usually trapped by an impermeable stratum of rock (aka caprock), but the injected CO2 also undergoes a host of chemical and physical processes which will further securely trap the CO2 underground and prevent its release from the storage reservoir.

Common Misconceptions About Carbon Removal Technologies. 🌳 Nature is excluded: Our methods often accelerate natural processes, working with nature. 🔥 Fossil fuels are favored: We prioritize rapid GHG emissions reductions to reach net-zero ASAP. ⏳ We have time: Delaying action until 2035 leads to a "lost decade." Immediate action is crucial. Transparency, feedback, and learning help us build confidence and correct these misconceptions, ensuring carbon removal plays a key role in the energy transition. 🌍🔄 Read more about the Puro Standard and our work to scale Carbon Removal: https://hubs.ly/Q02JmrYH0 #ClimateAction #NetZero #CarbonRemoval

To issue a CO2 Removal Certificate (CORC), several critical steps must be met: 🌬️ Capture: CO2 must be effectively captured from the atmosphere. 📦 Stabilization/Transportation: The captured CO2 needs to be stabilized and transported for storage. 🔒 Storage: CO2 must be securely stored to ensure long-term removal. 📊 Quantification by Measuring: Accurate measurement with minimal margin of error is essential. 🔍 Verification: Independent third-party auditors verify the removal post-capture. 🕒 Long-term: Storage must ensure CO2 remains sequestered beyond the peak of human emissions, achieving 100 to 1,000+ years permanence. 💰 Dependency on Carbon Finance: Sustainable carbon finance frameworks support the scaling of these methodologies.
