For the first time in UN climate negotiations, carbon dioxide removal (CDR) will have its own dedicated space.
The COP30 Presidency has confirmed the creation of the CDR30 Pavilion, a landmark pavilion inside the UNFCCC Blue Zone in Belém, Brazil, placing carbon removals at the heart of global climate diplomacy.
Coordinated by the Negative Emissions Platform (NEP) and supported through CDR30: The Global CDR Initiative at COP30, the pavilion is backed by more than 90 organizations spanning companies, NGOs, research bodies, investors, and philanthropies.
