The Carbon Removal Show

"The need is irrefutable. It's scientific fact. We need carbon removal" (Sophie Purdom)

If you're reading this, you've probably considered a certain question at some point in your life. It's the same question that puzzles the mind of many others, from activists to artists, businesses to busy parents: how do we heal the damage we've caused - and are still causing - in our planet's climate?

Step one - Plan A - has to be stopping our greenhouse gas emissions. But even if we managed to do that tomorrow (if only), we would still have an almighty mess to clean up.

And that's where carbon removal comes in.

When we started making this series, we didn't know much about carbon removal, so our first questions were naturally: why do we need it, and why now? In this first episode, hosts Emily and Tom explore the case for carbon removal.

The facts are clear - the planet is heating up because of emissions humans are putting into the atmosphere.

Even if we are able to cut out all our carbon emissions as fast as possible, we would still need to remove carbon we've already put in the atmosphere to hit global temperature targets.

Join Emily Swaddle and Tom Previte as they explore the world of carbon removal. What is it? Why is it necessary? How does it work? And who is doing it?

Along the way they'll be speaking to the people who are working to make carbon removal a widespread reality.
