Carbon removals are necessary to counterbalance emissions, but they cannot replace the need for deep emissions reductions.
- Carbon removals are essential for counterbalancing unavoidable emissions and stabilizing global temperatures.
- There are technical, societal, and environmental limits to the deployment of carbon removals.
- Carbon removals cannot undo the impacts of continued emissions on climate, ecosystems, and society.
- Companies often use cheap, non-permanent carbon removal methods instead of making deeper emissions reductions.
- Treating carbon removals as a substitute for emission cuts is considered green-washing.
- Companies should minimize their emissions and support the development of permanent carbon removals.
- Setting separate targets in climate strategies can help companies focus on emissions reduction.
- Governments need to establish a regulatory framework that includes clear national targets for carbon removals.
