Scaling CDR Summit

​Scaling carbon removal is essential for mitigating climate change. On June 24, join Isometric at London Climate Action Week for a half-day summit dedicated to tackling this global challenge.

​We’ll be bringing together corporate sustainability leaders, carbon removal suppliers, policymakers, and key players from across the ecosystem—including speakers from British Airways, the European Commission, Google, InPlanet and Plural.

​Throughout the afternoon, we’ll explore the UK and Europe’s competitive edge in scaling carbon removal, the evolving policy and regulatory landscape, leading buyers’ perspectives on carbon removal, and the technologies helping high-quality CDR scale responsibly and fast.

​Engage with industry leaders, exchange insights and help shape the future of carbon removal.
