The CDR Policy Scoop

COP30 - A Breakthrough Moment for Carbon Removal? - with Chris Neidl


Listen Later

It’s that time of year again - COP30 is just around the corner. This year in Belém, Brazil, CDR has stepped up its game and will have its first-ever CDR Pavilion in the blue zone. 


This was made possible by CDR30, the Global Carbon Dioxide Removal Initiative, consisting of a unified global CDR community of over 60 organisations across the ecosystem. Their mission: elevating CDR’s essential role in climate action at COP30.


A physical presence and strong coalition are a signal that carbon removal is finally stepping into the major leagues. But after years of questions about the role of carbon removal in the formal COP agenda, where exactly do we stand? What can we expect and hope for? 


That’s why we’re delighted to welcome Chris Neidl, Carbon Removal Lead with the High-Level Climate Champions. Among many other things, Chris has been working tirelessly to build support for carbon removal in the programming at COP.


Join co-host Eve Tamme as she discusses with Chris what COP30 could mean for CDR and gains exclusive insights from the behind-the-scenes preparations.
