NEW OCB-relevant meeting session list
2025
February 21: The Mid-Atlantic Coastal Acidification Network’s (MACAN) Spring 2025 webinar series launches “Responsible Deployment of mCDR: Case Studies and Community Insights". Join us at 12:00 PM ET to hear from Ocean Visions' Dr. Amelia-Juliette Demery and Dr. Sara Nawaz, Director of Research at American University's Institute for Responsible Carbon Removal. Using case studies, Amelia will explain how to apply existing strategic frameworks to guide responsible deployment of mCDR. Sara will discuss findings from her social science research on mCDR, particularly engagement research she has conducted with coastal communities. This webinar is co-hosted by MARCO's Coastal Carbon Collaborative . Register here: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_b8FaGt5VRHesDv0ywwjPiQ
