Funded Activity Summary
Enhanced Weathering – a sustainable tool for CO2 Removal? This project aims to be the first to assess risks and co-benefits of Enhanced Weathering for marine pelagic ecosystems. Enhanced Weathering is a powerful tool that can reduce atmospheric CO2 with significant economic co-benefits. However, it perturbs seawater chemistry and associated impacts on marine ecosystems are unknown. This project expects to combine state-of-the-art field and laboratory research to reveal whether Enhanced Weathering is a sustainable tool for CO2 Removal. The project provides significant benefits as it builds capacity within the currently emerging research field “ocean-based climate change solutions”. Within this capacity, it will help to identify a sustainable and economically viable future for Australia.Funded Activity Details
