Record quarter for carbon dioxide removal market
This record was driven by two large-scale purchases by Microsoft.
More tonnes of carbon dioxide removals (CDR) were contracted in the second quarter of 2025 than in all previous quarters combined, according to a new study.
CDR.fyi, which tracks durable carbon dioxide removal transactions globally, reports that 15.48 million tonnes of CDRs were contracted last quarter, more than the 13.6 million contracted in total since tracking began in 2020.
