air capture» technology, which pulls carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.
In the near term, federal policy could: i) level the playing field between
air captured CO2 and fossil - fuel derived CO2 by providing subsidies or credits for superior carbon lifecycle emissions that account for recovering carbon from the atmosphere; ii) provide additional research funding into
air capture R&D initiatives, along with other areas of carbon removal, which have historically been unable to secure grants; and iii) ensure
air capture is
deployed in a manner that leads to sustainable net - negative emissions pathways in the future, within the framework of near - term national emissions reductions, and securing 2 °C - avoiding emissions trajectories.
With market competition from other direct
air capture developers
deploying similar modular strategies, it is reasonable to expect that direct
