SUMMARY:Virtual CLE Program: The Role of Carbon Storage in the New Climate Policy
DESCRIPTION:\n1.00 Hr CLE Approved\nThe Forum and BakerHostetler LLP invite you to join us for a Virtual CLE Program on Wednesday, June 23rd. This presentation will focus on long-term storage of carbon dioxide either to reduce volumes emitted from new facilities or to remove carbon dioxide already in the atmosphere for potential use as carbon offsets in emissions trading. The two broad approaches to carbon capture are capturing carbon dioxide in flue gases before they are admitted or to remove carbon dioxide already in the atmosphere. Removal itself follows two broad approaches: mechanical and biological. Mechanical capture is through “direct air capture,” a technique already commercial on a small scale. Biological capture is through natural photosynthesis. Carbon is stored in trees, grasses, and soil.\nThe presentation will discuss the state of play in removal, the regulation of mechanical removal of carbon dioxide in flue gas and through direct air capture, its long-term “sequestration” under the Clean Air Act, and the treatment of biological removal under cap-and-trade programs.\n\nGold Underwriter Host:\n\nAt the request of our in-house members, the Forum is offering high quality CLE programming hosted by our Gold Underwriters to help members secure their annual CLE requirements.\nProspective Members Welcome!\nIf you have questions, contact the Forum at info@tgcf.org ( mailto:info@tgcf.org?subject=TGCF%20HOU%20Q3%20Question )\n
