Summary of all data
Country Data Summary
Methodology
The CDR Policy Tracker uses the Net Zero Tracker data on national net zero targets; please see here for detailed methodology. The following information was retrieved from the Net Zero Tracker: Target type, Target year, GHG emissions, Targets status, Net zero target, First interim target, Type of interim target, GHGs covered, Separate targets for emission reductions and removals, Historical emissions, Annual reporting mechanism, Plans for carbon removal (CDR), Planning to use external carbon credits, Conditions on use of carbon credits. Information retrieved from the Net Zero Tracker and displayed on the Carbon Removal Policy Tracker is subject to the latest version of the respective information published and available on the Net Zero Tracker.
The remaining information was directly retrieved from relevant sources (primarily from countries’ climate laws and plans) and analysed by Carbon Gap. This includes the following information: Annual removals, CDR target, Net negative target, Comprehensive CDR target, CDR target for conventional removals, CDR target for novel removals. A country is considered to have a comprehensive CDR target if it quantified CDR targets for both conventional removals and novel removals. CDR target for conventional removals and CDR target for novel removals require countries to have defined plans for carbon removals in the respective categories.
