Abstract

Stabilizing and then drawing down global temperature requires achieving net-negative CO2 emissions globally. Carbon removal is needed to offset “hard-to-abate” sectors that remain sources of emissions at net zero and beyond. We argue that the use of scarce carbon removal resources should be guided by the principles enshrined in the Paris Agreement.
