Carbon Direct, in collaboration with Microsoft, recently released the 2024 edition of the Criteria for High-Quality Carbon Dioxide Removal. Three years ago, we set out to define and elevate quality standards in the carbon removal market. The market has grown substantially, with removals-focused carbon credit purchases increasing fivefold from 2021 to 2023. However, we still have a long way to go to achieve the billions of tonnes of carbon removal needed annually by 2050. Our updated Criteria aim to guide project developers and buyers with a science-based approach, ensuring best-in-class carbon removal solutions. As the science and field experience in carbon removal evolve, so too must our standards. 🔍 Learn more about how we are driving quality and scalability in the carbon removal market: https://lnkd.in/gJT3sVJB #CarbonRemoval #Sustainability #ClimateAction #CarbonDirect #Microsoft #ClimateChange #EnvironmentalImpact
