  4. 24. DIRECT AIR CAPTURE CONTRIBUTION TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Hólmfrídur Snorradóttir; [2022]
    Keywords : Sustainable Development; Negative Emissions Technologies NETs ; Direct Air Capture DAC ; Three Pillars of Sustainability; Qualitative Approach;

    Abstract : To meet ambitious climate goals, of keeping global warming below 2°C, past emissions need to be removed from the atmosphere with the help of negative emissions technologies (NETs). The transition of energy systems, however, needs to follow the requirements of sustainable development to benefit all three pillars of sustainability, those are the environment, society, and economy.
