Who should pay for CO2 removal? Our new joint briefing w/Carbon Balance looks at UK public opinion on this question. The briefing presents findings from the first ever UK national survey on CDR policy preferences. Check it out here: co2re.org/wp-content/u...
A figure showing who survey respondents think should be primarily responsible for paying for CDR. The answers are "companies that produce fossil fuels" (48%); "the government" (24%); "companies that use fossil fuels" (16%); and "none, we shouldn't do CDR" (6%).
