This event will involve key international collaborators of our Transforming Climate Action (TCA) research program.
The townhall will provide a platform to discuss how partner institutions and international collaborators are envisioning their roles within the specific research projects and through the TCA accelerators, which are designed to drive research outcomes into the public domain.
The purpose of the event is to:
Chief Executive Officer and Scientific Director
Ocean Frontier Institute
Director, Global Ocean Monitoring and Observing Program
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
Deputy Director and Vice President for Science and Engineering
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
Program Scientist
NASA Ocean Biology and Biogeochemistry Program

Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR), when paired with extensive emissions reductions, is a mitigation strategy to limit warming to 1.5°C as it removes legacy carbon emissions from the atmosphere by augmenting natural processes on ocean and land.
However, in order to meet climate goals, CDR must scale 30 times its present capacity by 2030, which is estimated to require an annual global investment of 1.13 billion USD/year for research and development.

This panel event is focused on the Global Greenhouse Gas Watch, which will provide a valuable tool to support the transparency of global mitigation action.
The system will be built on three components:
Open and unrestricted access to data will ensure a full transparency of system outputs, which will provide globally consistent information that will feed multiple applications including supplementary information to the traditional inventory reporting.
