Hosted by the University of Pennsylvania, this symposium will rigorously examine the opportunities and challenges associated with developing localized carbon dioxide removal (CDR) initiatives in response to the impacts of climate change. Speakers from UPenn, the Department of Energy, and Lawrence Livermore National Lab will discuss the “Roads to Removal” report—a comprehensive, region-by-region CDR analysis detailing the economic, environmental, and employment opportunities across the United States in order to reach net-zero greenhouse gas goals by 2050 and specific regional opportunities for Pennsylvania.
The in-person and virtual symposium is free and open to the general public.
