Policy Brief
Brazil is emerging as one of the world’s most strategically positioned countries for large-scale carbon dioxide removal (CDR). With vast biomass resources, a highly decarbonized power system, and established geological storage capacity, it combines the natural, industrial, and regulatory foundations required to scale durable removals at competitive cost. The country’s carbon profile is dominated by land use and agriculture, together responsible for roughly three quarters of national emissions, making CDR not only a mitigation tool but also a structural pillar of Brazil’s transition to climate neutrality by 2050.
Brazil is positioned to become a global leader in durable carbon removal, combining abundant biomass, nearly 90% renewable electricity, and proven CO₂ storage capacity with clear regulatory momentum.
With the world’s first national rochagem (enhanced weathering) framework, an active CCUS law, and a national emissions trading system, Brazil offers one of the most comprehensive policy environments for scaling CDR.
