Given the Paris Accord’s aspirations, the climate challenge facing humanity can be expressed in simple terms: halve annual carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions by 2030, halve them again by 2040, and again by 2050. 2017, Faulk, 2019). Here we focus on some aspects of land-use and negative emission technologies (NET) dependent on the land.

Carbon capture and sequestration have often been considered technologies of last resort. As emissions keep rising and global carbon budgets decline, it is becoming increasingly apparent that if we are to stave off the worst of climate change we must deploy and scale these desperate remedies as quickly as possible.
