The piece reports that CDR methods, ranging from afforestation and soil carbon to direct air capture and enhanced rock weathering, will need to be deployed at rates faster than the historical growth of solar power if there is to be a realistic chance of holding warming to 1.5C. It walks through the mix of approaches, the scale of current deployment, and the gap between where projects stand today and the volumes implied by 1.5C-aligned scenarios. The Q&amp;A also touches on policy support, finance, and the role CDR plays in national climate plans.</p>
