2023 Google Carbon Removal Research Awards
Event details
| Date | 28.04.2023 |
| Category | Call for proposal |
Google is committed to supporting efforts to combat climate change across the world. The United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has identified carbon removal as a way to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Today, there is a scarcity of mature technologies with the requisite potential for scale. Google is looking to fund and actively collaborate with the research community, exploring opportunities and pathways to reduce anthropogenic carbon through mechanisms of carbon removal. These 2023 Google Carbon Removal Research Awards aim to fund selected research efforts to better characterize and accelerate the development of new carbon removal approaches.
