Carbon Removal Events Calendar 💼JOB OPPORTUNITIES“Ocean Visions is a non-profit organization that catalyzes innovation at the intersection of the ocean and climate crises. We facilitate multisector collaborations from within our Network and beyond, working with leading research institutions, the private sector, and public-interest organizations to fully explore and advance responsible and effective ocean-based climate solutions. In short, we work to stabilize the climate and restore ocean health.”
“Puro.earth ensure companies can neutralize carbon emissions with science-based carbon removals and remain trusted on the road to carbon net-zero. Their platform brings together suppliers of carbon net-negative technologies and climate conscious companies. They issue verified CO2 Removal Certificates (CORCs), a new kind of carbon offset based on carbon removed from the atmosphere for the long term.”
“Climeworks removes CO₂ from the air to fight global warming and protect future generations to come. We use direct air capture (DAC) technology to capture carbon dioxide directly from the air, permanently removing it from the atmosphere, so it can no longer contribute to climate change.”
“Aquarry uses mine pit lakes to capture and store carbon dioxide. Scalable, permanent, low cost carbon removal in a single step.”

The Rise of Climate Law within Carbon Removal | Carbon Removal Newsroom | The Rise of Climate Law within Carbon Removal Carbon Removal Newsroom 25:08 |
“Law structures so much of our lives, but can feel inaccessible to those untrained. It is also in flux! How is the law being changed in response to climate change? Which laws can be adapted to suit our climate-changing country and world? And which are unprepared for new challenges?Today's episode of Carbon Removal Newsroom is hosted by Radhika Moolgavkar, Nori's VP of Supply and Methodology. She is joined by Romany Webb, the Deputy Director of the Sabin Center for Climate Change Law at the Columbia Law School.They discuss the evolving field of climate law, its critical role in the development of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies, and the unique legal challenges presented by ocean-based CDR methods. Webb highlights the growing interest among law students in climate technology and emphasizes the importance of legal frameworks in addressing climate change. The conversation delves into the complexities of international and local laws governing oceans, the innovative concept of Community Benefits Agreements for climate projects, and the positive feedback on model law proposals intended to regulate CDR activities safely.The episode underscores the necessity of a diverse portfolio of CDR solutions to combat the climate crisis and explores the legal opportunities and challenges facing the CDR industry’s advancement.”
“Cement is, almost literally, everywhere. It is extraordinarily useful, which is why humanity makes 4 billion metric tons of it every year. But cement is also extremely carbon intensive to produce. Leah Ellis is the co-founder and CEO of Sublime Systems. Her problem is this: How can you make cement, at scale, without emitting carbon dioxide?”
