Meeting the Paris Agreement: the critical role of Earth science
Delivery of the Paris Agreement requires coherent and strategic management of the subsurface to deliver decarbonisation targets and to prevent conflicting use of the space.
Geological technologies, skills and knowledge are essential to the characterisation and stewardship of the subsurface resources needed to meet the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).
