A Danish-led group consisting of Denmark, Finland, and Panama has launched the Group of Negative Emitters at the COP28 climate talks in Dubai. Their ultimate goal is to remove more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than they emit, achieved through measures such as slashing emissions, expanding forests, and investing in new technologies like carbon capture and removal.
While experts acknowledge the high cost and limited scale of carbon capture projects, Denmark sees new technology as crucial for reaching its targets. Developing countries highlight the need for technology transfer and financing from developed nations to address rising emissions.
