A potential role of the negative emission of carbon dioxide in solving the
climate problem

A. G. Ryaboshapko, A. P. Revokatova

Abstract
Considered are the following possible approaches to get over the crisis:
the rapid reduction of anthropogenic emissions of CO2, the removal of CO2
excess from the atmosphere, and the targeted change in the balance of
coming solar radiation. Presented are the basic engineering methods of CO2
removal which are able to ensure the negative emission of CO2 at the level
of a gigaton per year. The maximum possible potential is assessed, the
scenario till 2300 is formulated, and the average lifetime of CO2 in the
sequestration reservoir is estimated for each method. Model computations
demonstrated that even the whole set of negative emission methods cannot
ensure the stabilization of global temperature at the permissible level
under the most pessimistic scenarios of CO2 concentration increase in the
atmosphere. The conclusion is made that since the middle of the 21st
century the humanity will have to use all three approaches to bar the
hazardous exceeding of the average global temperature.
