Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement: a guide to responsible, transparent, and inclusive research
Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) is a marine CDR approach actively studied by publicly and philanthropically funded research projects and start-ups. This has created an urgent need to learn if and how OAE can work at scale before mid-century, to identify potential impacts and ensure that OAE research is responsible, transparent, and inclusive. This panel will present the main findings of the “Guide to Best Practices in OAE Research” that offers guidance to advance knowledge on scientific aspects, legal and social considerations, and Monitoring, Reporting and Verification.
