Direct Air Capture
One of many important tools for reducing atmospheric CO₂ concentrations.
Human activity is raising atmospheric CO₂, warming the atmosphere and changing global climate
To avoid catastrophic climate change we must remove atmospheric CO₂ and stop emitting
Climate scientists advise keeping warming to below 1.5C to avoid the most catastrophic issues from climate change – but current policies and actions are coming up short
We need many avenues of CO₂ reduction and removal to get to 1.5C
We need all avenues of CO₂ removal

Direct air capture is one means of CO₂ removal
There are many technologies in development for CO₂ removal and these are meant to serve as examples
