Measures that companies take to remove carbon from the atmosphere and permanently store it within or beyond the value chain. Examples include, but are not limited to:
• DAC and storage
• Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS)
• Improved soil management
• Improved forest management
• Land restoration, e.g., of peatland, terrestrial forests or mangroves
Within the value chain, companies in the FLAG sectors are expected to deliver biogenic carbon removals as well as abatement as part of their science-based targets. Non-FLAG targets cannot be reached by removals.
