About the project
Mission:
The EU Carbon Removal Certification Framework (CRCF) will require policies to adapt for several sectors. In all countries this especially affects agriculture and building, as carbon storage in soil, plants and (nature-based) building materials play a key role.
In order to become future and climate proof, both sectors now require clear policies, guarantees and support from both EU and national/regional governments, also in order to innovate and find additional sources of (farming) income.
Objective:
Improving carbon storage in agriculture and the building sector, by acting on:
- stimulating (regenerative) crops for use in bio-based and carbon-storing building materials
- adjusting production capacity and building principles, to allow for the use of circular nature-based building materials
- aligning (national/regional) policies to the CRCF and the Green Deal
- adjusting and improving policies, funding, and education/training programmes for improved carbon storage in buildings.
Partners we are looking for
Similar regions in all member states, apart from especially NL, LV, AT, DE, FI, where already partners have been found or contacted. Will be updated if needed!
Preferred partners: National/regional agencies responsible for policies in these fields, agricultural and/or building association, and/or (potentially) education/training organisations.
