The Sabin Center for Climate Change Law and New York Sea Grant will host a one-day symposium exploring legal and policy issues associated with marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) activities that aim to increase uptake and storage of carbon dioxide in the ocean. The event, which is generously supported by the National Sea Grant Law Center and Carbon to Sea, will take place at Columbia Law School in New York City. We are also partnering with Washington Sea Grant and Delaware Sea Grant to host “regional learning hubs,” where individuals who are unable to travel to New York can come together to view the program and engage in their own regionally-relevant discussions.

The symposium will feature leading experts who will discuss the legal and policy landscape for mCDR in the United States and beyond. The goal is to bring together a wide range of legal and policy experts, regulators, government representatives, scientific researchers, industry groups, NGOs, and others interested in mCDR to explore the adequacy of existing legal and policy frameworks and how they might need to evolve to better facilitate research and deployment. There will be a strong focus on ways to ensure a responsible approach to mCDR development.

This event is generously supported by the National Sea Grant Law Center and Carbon to Sea.
