The Sabin Center for Climate Change Law is hosting a series of three educational webinars exploring the international legal landscape for marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) and how it is being implemented domestically in several countries.
This webinar, the first in the series, will focus on emerging mCDR governance issues at the London Convention and Protocol, which are two international agreements that aim to protect the marine environment from ocean dumping. To date, most international discussions regarding mCDR governance have occurred under the London Convention and London Protocol. Parties have, for several years now, wrestled with the proper application of the agreements to mCDR and other climate-related activities. This webinar will provide an overview of past mCDR-related decisions, and will explore emerging issues and open legal questions that are likely to be central in future discussions.
The webinar will be hosted by the Sabin Center’s Romany M. Webb, and expert panelists include Chris Vivian (GESAMP), Tony Cabus (Kiel University) and Mona Sidarous (Environment and Climate Change Canada).
Future webinars will look at mCDR governance under other international legal frameworks and domestic implementation of international legal requirements for mCDR.
