Oceans in danger! EU warns ocean carbon removal once seen as a ‘miracle climate cure’ may turn into a global threat

Ocean carbon removal, touted as a climate solution, faces significant hurdles. A new EU report cautions that these unproven technologies lack evidence of effectiveness, measurability, or environmental safety. Experts warn of potential damage to marine ecosystems and new climate risks if deployed prematurely, stressing the need for robust scientific data and strict monitoring before large-scale implementation.
