In collaboration with @ibi-biochar.bsky.social & @usbiochar.bsky.social we are excited to launch the Biochar Market Research Survey tinyurl.com/4pf73sxc

If you're a stakeholder in the #biochar industry, complete our survey & share with your network. Help make our estimates as accurate as possible!

State of CDR is headed to Tokyo!

Our Head of Partnerships, Nico Fairbairn will attend the 12th Annual Meeting for Innovation for Cool Earth Forum & the #CDR Mission Hybrid Workshop by Mission Innovation & Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.

Attending? Let us know and let’s connect!

The 2025 Global Biochar Industry Survey is live!

In partnership with @usbiochar.bsky.social and @ibi-biochar.bsky.social we're gathering insights from across the biochar ecosystem.

Take the survey here: survey.alchemer-ca.com/s3/50429939/...

💡Edition 3 will explore how EU policy compares internationally.

The @ec.europa.eu DG CLIMA released 3 studies on how the EU could scale up permanent #CDR
The studies cite #StateOfCDR & cover:
-Models for an EU purchasing programme blending public & private funding.
-A snapshot of CDR projects in Europe
-How EU funding tools support CDR + new financing options.

What role can carbon markets play in scaling #CDR?

A new paper in @tandfresearch.bsky.social, led by Dr Injy Johnstone, @roberthoglund.bsky.social, Sabine Fuss and Nadine Walsh explores voluntary & compliance markets.

A new study led by Sarah Lück published on @nature.com
maps nearly 29,000 CDR papers, 3–4 times more than earlier estimates.

Research clusters around biochar, soil carbon & BECCS, while DACCS, ocean & mineralization remain under explored.

The Emissions Gap Report 2024 draws on the State of CDR to assess CDR's evolving role in global climate action.

- Current policies could lead to 2.9°C warming
- CDR is gaining attention, but needs critical assessment.

Novel CDR credits like biochar, BECCS & DAC saw major growth in 2023. But across all methods, sold credits still far outpace delivery. A snapshot from #StateOfCDR, edition 2 shows where the voluntary carbon market is heading. Explore more in Chapter 4: www.stateofcdr.org/edition-2-re...

4️⃣ Innovation spans research, scaling & policy
5️⃣ Without tracking, we risk overestimating progress

🌍 CDR is in every climate plan, but do we really understand it?

Chapter 1 of the State of CDR (Edition 2) breaks it down:

1️⃣ Emissions cuts aren’t enough—we need CDR too
2️⃣ Only human interventions that lead to durable storage of CO₂ from the air count
3️⃣ Methods range from forests to tech

🌍 Curious about the state of carbon dioxide removal?

This snapshot from the State of CDR, Edition 2 highlights key data on deployment, innovation, carbon markets & climate scenarios, offering a consistent, independent view of where things stand.

How much CO₂ is being removed today?
About 2 GtCO₂/yr, mostly from land-based methods like forests. Novel methods like DACCS & rock weathering are small for now. See where CDR stands in Chapter 7 of #StateOfCDR Ed. 2: www.stateofcdr.org/edition-2-re...

The @thecccuk.bsky.social's Seventh Carbon Budget draws on data from SoCDR 2024 to assess how carbon removal is scaling—what’s ready, what’s emerging, and what still needs support. #CDR #SoCDR #NetZeroUK #ClimatePolicy #GGR

What’s the biggest barrier you see to scaling CDR, tech, policy, or public support?

#StateOfCDR

In 2020–21 the world removed about 2.1 GtCO₂, mostly from conventional methods. To stay on track for 1.5°C, up to 9.8 GtCO₂/year by 2050 is needed. This chart from The State of CDR Edition 2 shows the gap between what’s proposed and what’s needed.

To stop climate change, we need Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) & emissions cuts. But CDR is just getting started & data gaps are holding it back. The #StateOfCDR offers accessible evidence-based insights to help decision-makers track progress.

Explore the data. Follow the evidence.
