This dystopic-looking bot could scrub greenhouse gases from the air This technology uses chemical reactions to capture CO2 from the air What is direct carbon removal and why is it considered necessary? When I got interested in carbon management in the early 1990s, what drove me was the observation that carbon piles up in the environment. It takes naturethousands of years to remove that CO2, and we’re on atrajectory toward much higher CO2concentrations, well beyond anything humans have experienced....
