CDR30: The Global CDR Initiative at COP30

🌍 Driving Scalable Carbon Dioxide Removal for a Net-Zero Future Uniting for Carbon Removal: A Collective Voice at COP Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) is critical for reaching global net-zero goals, yet it remains underrepresented in climate policy and markets. As a coalition of leading CDR companies, we are coming together at COP to push for policy recognition, market scale-up, and financial mechanisms that drive real impact. Brazil, as a key supplier of agricultural solutions and mineral resources, presents a unique opportunity to integrate CDR with economic benefits, strengthening local industries while advancing global climate goals. To unlock real progress, we must highlight proof of concept, demonstrating that ERW, Biochar, and DAC can drive agricultural productivity, enhance economic resilience, and create local jobs. The current market landscape is challenging, with voluntary carbon buyers facing political scrutiny and corporate sustainability commitments under pressure. Instead of relying solely on carbon credits, we need to position CDR as a strategic asset, one that delivers tangible economic and environmental benefits to local industries and global supply chains. Our goal at COP is to bring this economic and innovation narrative to the forefront, ensuring that CDR becomes a central pillar of climate action. If you are a policymaker, corporate leader, or investor looking to scale high-quality carbon removal, we invite you to join us in shaping the future.
