Special Edition – Carbon Neutral Coalition Featuring Corby Robertson

We have all heard countries, states, cities and companies announce their plans to be somewhat or fully carbon neutral by 2030 or 2035 or 2050 or 2060... but the question remains, how are they... and how are we... going to really do that? For a Special Edition COBT this week, we were thrilled to visit with a great friend, Corby Robertson, to learn about the Carbon Neutral Coalition that is tackling this all important question. Surely significant carbon capture will play a meaningful role. We all know, however, that it won't happen in the scale we need unless we get the economic and market and legal structures right.

The Carbon Neutral Coalition's mission is for the State of Texas to become carbon neutral by 2050 and maintain a robust economy that provides a good standard of living and affordable energy, products, and services. To do so, they are bringing together energy companies, environmentalists, politicians and regulators. As Corby points out, by working together with all these groups, the oil and gas industry could lead us to become a carbon neutral world. Be prepared for a great and detailed walkthrough from Corby. We loved it!

As you will hear, Corby also references a National Petroleum CCUS report. The NPC Petroleum report is linked here. You may find more information on the Carbon Neutral Coalition and their full list of recommendations linked here as well.

Thanks again, Corby, for a great discussion and many thanks to you all too! Have a great weekend!
