We are happy to invite you to the second online event in our Webinar Series “Carbon dioxide removal and society”, organized as part of the European project “Bridging current knowledge gaps to enable the UPTAKE of carbon dioxide removal methods” (UPTAKE).
Date: March 3rd, 2026 – 16:00 -17: 00 CET
Topic: Carbon Dioxide Removal in Denmark: Societal Pathways, Actors and Public Priorities
The Danish context combines ambitious climate policy, local energy infrastructures, high trust in institutions and active community engagement, making it a real-world laboratory for the implementation of carbon dioxide removal (CDR). As efforts to develop and deploy CDR become part of the Danish climate strategy and discussions in the media, key questions include: how do public trust and institutional frameworks influence the development and deployment of CDR options? What can we learn from experiences in other climate-related infrastructure debates?
The discussion will examine present and future trajectories for carbon dioxide removal in Denmark, how these intersect with other ongoing discussions around climate and agriculture, and then draw lessons for responsible deployment at the regional and national level.
