Yasmin Romitti contributes to NAS report on carbon dioxide removal and sequestration

First-year PhD student Yasmin Romitti has collaborated with the National Academy of Sciences to develop a research agenda for dealing carbon dioxide capture. Negative emissions technologies that aim to remove and sequester excess carbon from the atmosphere have been identified as an important part of the portfolio of responses to climate change. This new report aims to develop a detailed research and development agenda needed to assess the benefits, risks, and sustainable scale potential for carbon dioxide removal and sequestration approaches and increase their commercial viability. Romitti is advised by Professor Tony Janetos.
