Evidence on potential environmental impacts and social implications of greenhouse gas removal technologies – overview report

Summary

This UK government report addresses the critical challenge of understanding the potential environmental and social impacts of emerging greenhouse gas removal (GGR) technologies. The approach involves a comprehensive review and synthesis of existing evidence across five key GGR methods: ocean alkalinity enhancement, enhanced rock weathering, biochar, bioenergy with carbon capture and storage, and direct air carbon capture and storage. The project is completed with the publication of this overview report, which identifies evidence gaps and informs future research priorities for responsible GGR deployment.
