This episode covers a research paper that analyzed optimal economic policies for carbon dioxide removal (CDR), specifically focusing on the challenges posed by non-permanent storage technologies. The authors argue that while temporary carbon sequestration can reduce immediate climate mitigation costs, it creates a perpetual "carbon debt" because released emissions must be repeatedly captured. To address this, they introduce the Social Cost of Carbon Removal (SCCR), a metric measuring the future damage caused when stored carbon eventually leaks back into the atmosphere. The text evaluates three primary policy frameworks—downstream pricing, upstream subsidies, and stock-based incentives—based on their effectiveness in managing liability and monitoring requirements. Ultimately, the study concludes that non-permanent CDR serves as a vital bridge technology during the transition to a carbon-neutral economy but does not alter long-term optimal temperature targets.
