In order to meet targets set by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to limit the most severe effects of climate change, levels of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere must not exceed 450 parts per million. While fuel switching, energy efficiency, and conservation are critical pillars to reduce CO₂ emissions, they are insufficient to deal with fugitive emissions or cancel out past emissions. Air capture, or the technological ability to remove CO₂ from air at least 1000 times more effectively than biomass presents a promising option to achieve the IPCC’s goal. This presentation will outline strategies for economically deploying air capture and discuss its role as one of the sustainable solutions to climate change.
