Soil Organic Carbon

To Review before Meeting 3

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the amount of resources there are, consider splitting up/assigning resources amongst your team members! That way each person has a unique perspective to bring to the discussion.

Terms: Now that you’re deep into Boot Up, use the term “carbon dioxide removal” rather than the acronym “CDR”. A 2026 study showed prefer hearing from practitioners using more natural, simplified terms than technical jargon. “CDR” refers to many things not related to carbon dioxide removal and translates badly into other languages (cee-dee-er in French means "to give up / to hand over.", yikes!)
