Thursday, September 19, 2019. 1:15PM. Webinar: Towards a 20 GT Negative CO2 Emissions Industry. Sponsored by Security and Sustainability Forum and Arizona State University. More information here. 

How to Remove 20 GT of CO2, Save the Planet and Pay for It?

It is an imperative to capture 20 GT of carbon from the air in the next 20 years.  That will require contributions for all sectors including action in agriculture, industrial processes and direct air capture.  What is the scorecard in each sector and how does each trajectory look? What are the drivers and how can the pace of innovation and commercialization of new solutions be accelerated and scale enough to get to 20 GT in time?

The webinar will examine those drivers including policy, price signals and incentives and others. It will address the gaps in the innovation pipeline and what is needed to incentivize development and create new markets for carbon and how California leadership in staking state tax incentives with 45Q and other policy commitments can be a model for other states and federal action.
