Enhanced Rock Weathering 101
Hosted by In Planet
As global climate ambition moves from pledges to implementation, durable carbon removal is emerging as a crucial pillar of credible net-zero pathways. Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW) harnesses natural mineral cycles to permanently remove CO₂ while delivering measurable benefits for soil health and agricultural resilience.
This session will provide a clear and science-grounded introduction to ERW, covering the geochemical mechanisms, agricultural co-benefits, monitoring and verification approaches, and early learnings from large-scale field deployment in tropical systems. Designed for policymakers, climate finance leaders, and agrifood decision-makers, this briefing will prepare participants to engage confidently with ERW as part of integrated climate and food-system strategies.
What we’ll cover
- Science and mechanisms of Enhanced Rock Weathering
- Durability and carbon accounting considerations
- Co-benefits for soil fertility and regenerative agriculture
- MRV innovations and field-deployment insights
- Role of ERW within Paris-aligned climate strategies
Speakers
- Dr. Christina Larkin Vice President of Science & Research, InPlanet
