## Description

The Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) Primer is a comprehensive educational resource developed through two years of collaboration among experts in carbon removal technologies. This primer serves as a foundational guide, exploring critical concepts, methodologies, and the necessity of carbon dioxide removal for climate stabilization. It incorporates a variety of topics, including the science behind CDR, different techniques such as mineralization, soil carbon sequestration, and direct air capture, as well as the importance of integrating social justice into CDR initiatives.

Supported by organizations like the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and the Environmental Defense Fund, the CDR Primer aims to maximize accessibility by offering a digital, open-source version for free, with a physical copy in production. Structured into informative chapters, it also highlights the economic and environmental implications of large-scale carbon dioxide removal efforts. This resource is pivotal for policymakers, researchers, and anyone interested in understanding the landscape of carbon removal technologies and their role in mitigating climate change.
