into the ocean where it’s stored for a thousand years or more.“We know ocean CDR happens naturally and the question is whether it can be enhanced,” Buesseler explains. “What is key to keeping our planet temperatures below the 2°C threshold agreed upon in Paris is immediate greenhouse gas reductions, but along with that, the development of ocean CDR approaches to reduce CO2 already emitted into the atmosphere.” Ocean technology stands ready to play a crucial role, he points out. “We’ve made great strides in the past decade on autonomous platforms and sensors
