Carbon Removal, Climate Impacts, and Equity: Insights from Expert Elicitation

The document outlines expert perspectives on how climate damages exacerbate inequality and identifies three primary equity risks associated with carbon dioxide removal (CDR): moral hazard, the use of removed CO2 for enhanced oil recovery, and negative social or environmental impacts.

• Experts in climate economics indicate that the damages resulting from climate change are expected to worsen inequality on both an international and domestic scale.
