A Message from Brad Crabtree, Assistant Secretary
It’s finally here – the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Carbon Negative Shot Summit is taking place this Wednesday, July 20th. I am very much looking forward to gathering with my DOE colleagues, members of Congress, and leaders across many other agencies and organizations for this first-ever DOE event.
Together, we’ll discuss how carbon dioxide removal will help us meet the nation’s climate goals in a commercially viable, just, and sustainable way. Industry experts will also engage in a variety of panels to dig deeper into topics such as the innovation needed to foster the growth of this emerging industry, environmental and climate justice, and much more. You can view the full agenda and speaker list here.
It's not too late to sign up to join us! As a reminder, registration is required.
I look forward to seeing you at the Summit.

Sincerely,
Brad Crabtree
Assistant Secretary for the Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management
