Why does France need an industry association on carbon dioxide removal?

The elimination of carbon dioxide has become a crucial issue in the fight against climate change. Recognizing this urgency, France has created the Association Française pour l'Élimination du Carbone (AFEN), marking a turning point in its environmental approach. AFEN brings together a diverse range of players: NetZero, CarbonX, and many others, from innovative startups like ClimeRock and CarbonLoop, to academic institutions and CDR buyers. This multidisciplinary collaboration is essential for developing and deploying effective CO2 removal solutions tailored to France's specific circumstances. AFEN serves as a platform for sharing best practice, encouraging innovation and influencing public policy, underlining the importance of collective, coordinated action in this crucial area.
