Cambridge Researchers Develop Framework for Long-Term Carbon Removal Portfolio Management

Researchers have created a new risk management approach for carbon removal portfolios that could help stabilize global temperatures over centuries. The study shows nature-based solutions like tree planting can play significant roles when balanced with technological approaches and proper buffers.

New Framework for Carbon Removal Portfolio Management

Researchers from Cambridge University have developed a groundbreaking method to assess whether carbon removal portfolios can effectively limit global warming over centuries, according to reports published in the journal Joule. The approach distinguishes between buying credits to offset risk versus claiming net-negative emissions and provides portfolio managers with tools to evaluate long-term climate stabilization potential.
