Leverhulme Centre for Climate Change Mitigation

The Leverhulme Centre for Climate Change Mitigation brings together researchers from a wide range of backgrounds to explore the potential of using enhanced rock weathering on croplands to remove CO2 from the atmosphere.

Welcome to LC3M

Members of the centre talk about the impact of climate change and how they are investigating enhanced rock weathering as a method of carbon capture and a more sustainable form of crop fertilisation.
